Ransomware is a major concern to companies in today’s digital landscape. Device security products like anti-virus, anti-malware etc are not completely effective which is why it is essential to have a solid backup routine as a first line of defence.
Educating people on the dangers of ransomware and how to identify it is another great step towards increasing your chances of detecting it before it creates headaches. Whilst it is an expectation that technology should be capable of providing the defence from these threats there is still a portion that the latest product offerings are still unable to detect.
In the past 3 years the products available to protect against malware and ransomware have increased significantly allowing choice and pushing the existing companies to work harder to protect your systems. Financial models have also changed to allow you to change software vendors thanks to subscription based payment plans. Don’t think you are locked in because you can easily move to a different product if you feel your machine is running to slow or your are still seeing too many popups.
