Ransomware attacks have rapidly increased in frequency and severity. What was initially considered a nuisance has been adopted by sophisticated attackers in complex, multi-phased attacks that combine data encryption with the threat of data exposure. These actors increased their scope - from widely seeding this malware threat to targeting specific organizations and industries including whole cities. Today, the total cost of ransomware attacks can climb into the millions of dollars.
This is why Pentera, the Automated Security Validation platform, added the first active ransomware emulation framework, applying real and safe ransomware tactics and techniques, on your organization’s framework. This framework enables you to validate your organization’s readiness against a ransomware attack at any given moment. We’re not trying to detect ransomware - we’re stress-testing your organization against it.
