About the training

Finding yourself in a situation where your company has been hit by ransomware, your systems and data are paralysed and hackers are threatening to destroy or expose your data can be highly stressful. Unfortunately, attackers are aware of this and take advantage of the situation, which is why this is the time in which most post-breach mistakes happen. This training will cover the current threat landscape and the characteristics of the different ransomware families and breach patterns that are employed. Additionally, by gaining insights into the attackers` mindset you will be better prepared to assess the situation, implement the best crisis management strategy, and execute a negotiation protocol to minimise the damage as much as possible.
 
Target audience:
Executives & upper management (CEOs, CFOs, CTOs), compliance professionals, security & amp; IT specialists. The course can be adapted depending on the audience`s background.
 
Key takeaways:
● Define ransomware and understand the current threat landscape
● Differentiate between the current ransomware families and how they operate
● Differentiate between common breach patterns across industries
● Assess crisis management strategies to find the one that is optimal for your business
● Identify the psychological tricks used by hackers
