Ransomware readiness for SMBs

Prepare for the rising threat of RaaS, initial access brokers, and credential theft
The modern ransomware landscape relies on a criminal “gig” economy to enable and scale cyberattacks.

These services include malware obfuscation or encryption, certificates, malware-as-a-service, credentials, footholds within networks, and Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) such as Lockbit.

For threat actors, including amateur actors, underground forums and IM channels provide plenty of opportunity (given the emergence of RaaS and affiliate business models) for entry into networks or high-value account credentials.

Unfortunately for network defenders, this has widened the scope of possible entry vectors they need to anticipate and defend.

Accomplishing this takes time and resources but can yield far greater payouts from victims. Here's all you need for ransomware readiness for your organisation.
