Join us for this webinar as we delve into research findings about the risk to organizations from ransomware attacks that occur on weekends and holidays and how you can better prepare to defend against and respond to attacks designed to hit when your organization is most vulnerable.
Cybereason published a global research report, titled Ransomware: The True Cost to Business, which revealed that the vast majority of organizations that have suffered a ransomware attack experienced significant impact to the business as a result. The consequences included loss of revenue, damage to the organization’s brand, unplanned workforce reductions, and disruption of business operations.
Cybereason released follow-up research, titled Organizations at Risk: Ransomware Attackers Don’t Take Holidays, that focuses on the threat that ransomware attacks during the weekends and holidays poses to organizations. The global survey includes responses from 1,200+ security professionals at organizations that have previously suffered a successful ransomware attack.
