How Do You Detect Ransomware?
The best way to detect ransomware is through continuous network monitoring for any suspicious activity. Having file logs reviewed automatically with alerts set up for anything that looks out of the ordinary is a start.
Using applications for Security Incident and Event Monitoring (SIEM) and other threat management technologies can help IT administrators detect ransomware attacks immediately so they can be shut down before any damage is done.
About Critical Insight
Critical Insight is the only cybersecurity-as-a-service provider that prepares, monitors and responds to cyber threats, going beyond SOC-as-a-service offerings typical of Managed Detection and Response (MDR) offerings.
With a focus on organizations that deliver critical services – hospitals, local governments, utilities, school systems, and more – we provide end-to-end support to those with limited security teams or budgets to handle threats proactively and as they occur.
Based in Bremerton and Seattle, Washington, Critical Insight is a venture-backed company founded by former CISOs in the public sector. We are committed to training new analysts and providing the most up-to-date cybersecurity protection.
