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. |

The mandate establishes an aggressive timeline for federal agencies to address known vulnerabilities in their environments. More importantly, though, the guidance will change how government agencies deal with cybersecurity moving forward and improve our ability to defend against attacks. |

Recent ransomware attacks have shown that stakes are high.

Building out an anti-ransomware strategy is not just a good idea anymore, it is imperative. However, there are quite a few vendors in the market, making the selection process difficult.
