About the Webinar

Though ransomware attacks dropped significantly in early 2018, over the past several years they have reemerged with a vengeance. Ransom payments have also shot up, and in December 2019 the average ransom payout to an attacker was over $80,000. Through this gain in popularity and increasing ransom payout, attackers are developing new features and capabilities to make ransomware more sophisticated.
