Frequently Asked Questions

What is ransomware?+
Ransomware is a type of malware that encrypts files, locks systems, or blocks access to business data until a ransom is demanded. Some ransomware attacks also involve stealing sensitive information and threatening to publish it.
How do ransomware attacks usually start?+
Ransomware attacks often begin through phishing emails, stolen credentials, exposed remote access, unpatched software vulnerabilities, malicious downloads, or compromised vendor accounts. Once attackers gain access, they may move through the network before launching the ransomware.
Can antivirus alone stop ransomware?+
Traditional antivirus alone is not enough to stop modern ransomware. Strong protection usually requires endpoint detection and response, managed threat monitoring, email security, employee training, patch management, access controls, and reliable backup recovery.
What is double extortion ransomware?+
Double extortion ransomware happens when attackers both encrypt business systems and steal sensitive data. Even if backups are available, the attackers may threaten to publish or sell the stolen data unless payment is made.
How can businesses reduce ransomware risk?+
Businesses can reduce ransomware risk by using endpoint protection, multi-factor authentication, strong password management, regular patching, employee security training, dark web monitoring, managed detection and response, and tested backup recovery plans.
What should I do if my business is hit by ransomware?+
Disconnect affected systems from the network, avoid paying or communicating with attackers without professional guidance, preserve evidence, and contact your IT or cybersecurity provider immediately. Fast containment is critical to limit damage and begin recovery.
