The ransomware threat is huge, and it gets bigger every day. Chances are, it’s already affected you or someone you know, or will affect in the nearest future. Some estimates of the damages exceed one billion dollars, taking into account data loss, service outages, disrupted operations, and recovery.
A lone administrator peers at a security console, looking at screens that may best be described as looking at “the Matrix”. He tries desperately to find any anomalies that might indicate the greatest challenge to your data – ransomware.
Every 19 seconds a new ransomware attack happens, leading to significant financial and reputational damage. You need to protect your company from ransomware. But what is the best ransomware protection? Let’s find out.
Ransomware is one of the most concerning cybersecurity threats for individuals, SMBs, and enterprise environments alike.

In this article, we’ll take a look at the biggest ransomware attacks of 2019 and the severe impact they have had.

Storing information, including sensitive information in the public cloud can be worrisome for businesses. Countless news headlines of data leakage and privacy violations continue to rock businesses in a wide range of industries and technology spaces.
There is perhaps no more basic security mechanism than data encryption. Encryption is used in so many useful security solutions that it has become a staple for ensuring that unauthorized access to data is not possible. From encrypting data that is sitting on a disk to encrypting the data that traverses over the wire from a network perspective, data must be secured using encryption mechanisms to ensure that it is safe during all stages of the process, both in-flight and at-rest.
