There are certain immutable things in cybersecurity; the volume of threats will only ever grow, the acceptable time for businesses to be offline will only get shorter. What is clear is the longer you are breached, the greater the potential for business disruption and commercial impact, and ransomware has moved that scale from days or weeks to hours or minutes. |

Double extortion is one of the most prevalent ransomware tactics today. The attackers first exfiltrate sensitive information from their target before launching the ransomware encryption routine. The threat actor then demands a ransom payment in order to regain access to the encrypted assets along with an additional threat to publicly expose or otherwise release the data if the ransom demand is not met promptly. |
