| Titre | Protection des ransomwares et stratégies de confinement: conseils pratiques pour le durcissement et la protection des infrastructures, des identités et des points de terminaison Ransomware Protection and Containment Strategies: Practical Guidance for Hardening and Protecting Infrastructure, Identities and Endpoints |

Multi-faceted extortion via ransomware and/or data theft is a popular end goal for attackers, representing a global threat targeting organizations in all industries. The impact of a successful ransomware event can be material to an organization, including the loss of access to data, systems, and prolonged operational outages. The potential downtime, coupled with unforeseen expenses for restoration, recovery, and implementation of new security processes and controls can be overwhelming.Since the initial launch of our report in 2019, data theft and ransomware deployment tactics have continued to evolve and escalate. This evolution marks a shift from manual or script-based ransomware deployment to sophisticated, large-scale operations, including:
Weaponizing Trusted Service Infrastructure (TSI): Adversaries are increasingly abusing legitimate infrastructure and security tools (TSI) to rapidly propagate malware or ransomware across entire networks.
Targeting Virtualization Platforms: Attackers are actively focusing on the virtualization layer, aiming to mass-encrypt virtual machines (VMs) and other critical systems at scale.
Targeting Backup Data / Platforms: Threat actors are exploiting misconfigurations or security gaps in backup systems to either erase or corrupt data backups, severely hindering recovery efforts.
Based upon these newer techniques, it is critical that organizations identify the span of the attack surface, and align proper security controls and visibility that includes coverage for protecting:
Identities
Endpoints
Network Architectures
Remote Access Platforms
Trusted Service Infrastructure (TSI)
Cascading weaknesses across these layers create opportunities for attackers to breach an organization\'s perimeter, gain initial access, and maintain a persistent foothold within the compromised network.
