What is Ransomware?

Ransomware is malicious software with one aim in mind: to extort money from its victims. It does this by blocking access to your computer system or files until a ransom is paid. It is one of the most prolific criminal business models in existence today, mostly thanks to the multimillion-dollar ransoms criminals demand from individuals or corporations.

How to protect myself from ransomware?

There are multiple ways to protect yourself from ransomware attacks but the exact protections vary from case to case. The best way to start protecting yourself is to have your systems evaluated by a cybersecurity firm. Contact us today and one of our expert consultants can help you assess your network and help you protect yourself from ransomware attacks.

Should I pay the ransom?

Paying the ransom yourself is very risky business. In some circumstances, decryptor software is available to fix the issue. Other times, paying the ransom may be the only option. However, it is important to note that even if you pay the ransom, getting your data back is not guaranteed. This is why hiring professionals to evaluate your options is the best decision. Obviously, the most important thing is to make sure that you will not only get your data back, but also prevent future attacks.

How much does it cost?

The price depends on the number of machines infected and ransomware strain. The evaluation fee is $1,399 for up to 5 machines, $1,799 for up to 10 machines and $2,499 for up to 20 machines. If you have a bigger network, please request a quote and fill out the form.

How did my network get infected?

This is a very important question. Ransomware can spread in many different ways. As a part of our service, we help customers understand not only how they got infected but the weaknesses in their networks that may have led to the infection.

What are the top ways ransomware spreads?

Ransomware is often spread through phishing emails that contain malicious attachments which are clicked on. Phishing attacks are often emails that make you believe you know the sender which makes you click on the attachments in the email. Doing so can infect not only your machine but the whole network. It can also be spread through drive-by downloading. Drive-by downloading occurs when a user unknowingly visits an infected website, and then malware is downloaded and installed without the user’s knowledge.

Should I try to negotiate with the hackers?

This is not ideal. The fundamental problem with the negotiation option is simple, you have no leverage so there is no guarantee that you will get your data back. Also, there is no guarantee that you won't be infected again, at a later time and date. The best way to get your data back and get protection from future attacks is by hiring professionals.
