What’s old is new again.
Ransomware was first released in 1989, but the rapidly evolving threat has become popular once again.
- 623.3 million: Ransomware attack volume in 2021 — 105% higher than 2020’s total
Healthcare in particular is at a heightened risk for ransomware and cryptojacking.
- 755%: Increase in ransomware volume for healthcare in 2021
- 218%: Increase in cryptojacking attempts among SonicWall healthcare customers in 2021
What’s the real ransomware challenge?
The true concern isn’t the ransomware that’s already spread around the internet. It’s targeted attacks and zero-day threats.
- Targeted attacks: Never-before-seen code purpose-built for the organization being attacked
- Zero-day threats: Exploit newly discovered vulnerabilities for which vendors have yet to issue patches
The goal: Detect and remove malicious code as close to the source of the attack as possible.
With advanced modern malicious code, threat detection requires a multifaceted approach.
Key components of a protected network include:
- Frequent employee education
- Multi-layered security
- A segmented network
- Regular system updates and patches
