The escalation of ransomware – rising to the challenge

Is your business ready for the new reality of ransomware attacks and their impact on businesses?

A Meet the Boss roundtable brought to you by Hitachi Vantara

Ransomware attacks have matured from the initial “encrypt everything” technique to a more complete cyber penetration that focuses on stealing as much of your data as possible then encrypting everything it can. While ransomware attacks have gotten more sophisticated, they have also gotten much easier for anyone to do, there are even ransomware as a service offering.

Is your business and your trusted business partners doing everything they should to protect your data?

Join Hitachi Vantara and a select group of your peers as we explore how to address and prepare to protect your business and your data from these new threats.
