Ransomware Actor Profiling eBook

Our latest Ebook uncovers how seven players are transforming a multi-billion-dollar industry thanks to psychological techniques warfare and franchise like attack platforms. Staying ahead requires a nuanced understanding of your adversary’s playbook.

The old rules have been rewritten. But how exactly?

Industrial scale platforms, multi-layered extortion tactics, tactics designed to maximize pressure tocripple operations… Ransomware in 2025 looks a whole lot different. This is why knowing your adversary is so important.

A static security posture is no longer an option. The only way to counter a relentless, evolving threat is with a proactive, intelligent defense. In this Ebook we discuss the four non negotiable pillars involved in fighting ransomware proactively.

1. Create a security first mindset: Foster a culture of security with robust training to identify the sophisticated phishing and social engineering tactics that act as initial entry points.
2. Proactively manage your attack surface: Invest in external attack surface management to continuously identify and patch vulnerabilities in exposed systems like VPNs and RDPs before attackers can exploit them.
3. Implement cutting-edge security measures: Go beyond basic defenses. Enforce MFA, network segmentation, and a “3-2-1” data backup strategy to ensure you always have secure, offline recovery options.
4. Develop and test your incident response plan: Evolve from a reactive to a proactive outlook by regularly testing and updating a well-defined incident response plan so your team is prepared to act under pressure.
