Inside the Growing Complexity of Ransomware Hacking Groups

Send us Fan MailWe’re back to discuss an all-too-familiar topic – ransomware.Ironically enough, it seems the topics we describe in this manner become so familiar because we can’t figure out viable, long-term solutions. I think part of the challenge for industrial organizations dealing with ransomware is that we have to divide our energy and resources between prevention, detection and response. Any one of those is a challenge, but managing all three is daunting, and hackers know this. But so do the good guys - one of which is our guest for today’s episode. Listen as Jeff Krull, principal and leader of Baker Tilly’s cybersecurity practice discusses their Guide to Ransomware Prevention, as well as his thoughts on:The C-suite's growing appreciation of how cyberattacks are impacting profitability, which means cybersecurity has become more than just an IT issue.How more resources have made RaaS groups increasingly difficult to detect and stop.Paying vs. not paying the ransom.Why more cyber regulation is on the way.Manufacturing's lack of redundant assets is making it a more attractive target, but also fueling action around response and recovery plans.Why not everyone needs access to everything.As a go-to podcast for our listeners, we want to help you align your brand with our expertise.
