Ransomware turns small security gaps into major disasters

88%

Most organizations faced at least one ransomware attack in the past year.

58%

During ransomware attacks, 58% of organizations were forced to shut down operations.

13%

Only 13% of organizations were able to fully recover all encrypted data after a ransomware attack.

How ransomware breaks in and takes over

Ransomware has infinite ways in

New exploits, phishing, and AI-generated variants keep opening new paths. But once inside, ransomware still depends on a finite set of protocols to move laterally.

‍

Too much trust, too little control

Flat networks and implicit trust give attackers a free pass to move laterally. Without a Zero Trust strategy, one compromised system can lead to dozens more.

Visibility gaps hide blind spots

Complex hybrid multi-cloud environments create visibility gaps attackers love. If you can’t see the risk, you can’t stop the spread.

Traditional detection is too slow

Ransomware can encrypt your data in hours. Detection often takes days. By the time an alert fires and someone investigates, the damage is done.

Double extortion raises the stakes

Today’s attackers don’t just lock your data. They steal it and threaten to leak it. Paying the ransom doesn’t guarantee safety anymore.

Most tools can’t stop the spread

Alerts tell you something’s wrong. They don’t stop the attack. Most tools have no way to isolate compromised systems or close protocols ransomware uses to move.
