Guide To Preventing & Minimising The Impact Of Ransomware Attacks

Ransomware is a type of malware which restricts users from accessing their own data. Hackers use ransomware to encrypt your data and lock you out of your own systems. They then demand ransom payments to let you gain access back. They’ll either threaten to leak your data or make you lose it forever unless you pay the ransom.

According to some stats, ransomware attacks are increasing exponentially with time. In 2021, the number of attacks increased to 140% as compared to the previous year.

The truth for most modern businesses is that there is no avoiding ransomware attacks. Even with the best malware protection and cyber infrastructure, several businesses fall prey to ransomware infections every day.

So what can you do to keep your business, organisational data and personal information of staff and customers safe?

There are a few essential steps that every organisation can take to mitigate the damage that malware infections can cause. In this blog, we go into some detail of the best ransomware prevention and ransomware protection strategies, along with the best ways to respond to minimise damage.

Back Your Data Up Thoughtfully

Encrypting ransomware is one of the most dangerous types of ransomware. This form of malware allows you to browse through your files but you can’t open any of them or access any of your important business data once it infects systems.

Keep Systems Up-To-Date
Make sure your computer runs the newest form of Windows and other software with all the latest reinforcements. Make sure to turn on Windows Security to protect you from bugs and malware (or Windows Protector Security in previous forms of Windows 10).

Keep Monitoring Network
Network monitoring is another tool that can be used to detect ransomware moving through your network. If you’re able to detect the infection in early stages, you could prevent a major data breach from taking place.
