Defending Against Emerging Ransomware Threats

If you think ransomware is bad now, well, just wait—it’s going to get a whole lot worse. As ransomware attacks and attackers become more sophisticated, cybercriminal gangs will rely less on broad-based attacks and more on remote code execution using malware designed for specific targets. Essentially, cybercriminals that launch ransomware attacks are becoming more efficient. That means it is now a question of when rather than if most organizations will find themselves dealing with one or more ransomware incidents.
