What is Ransomware?

Ransomware is a type of malware that encrypts your files and requires paying an attacker a ransom in return for restoring access to your data. As there’s no guarantee that a perpetrator will honor the terms of the ransom, preventing ransomware through cybersecurity best practices and routine snapshots is your best option.

1. How does ransomware work?

A ransomware attack infects a computer or device, gaining administrative privileges and encrypting all your files. The attacker will normally leave a note demanding a ransom in return for unencrypting your files. Ransomware has similar attack vectors to other malware, including email phishing scams or targeted exploitation of personnel or security vulnerabilities.

2. How can you prevent ransomware attacks?

While nothing can prevent a ransomware attack, there are steps you can take to mitigate damage and downtime including:

Keeping your operating system and technology stack up-to-date to stay ahead of known exploits and vulnerabilities
Cybersecurity investments (e.g., InfoSec training, network security audits, and vulnerability testing)
Controlling access to secure files and data through admin rights and privilege management
Backing up files through frequent snapshots and other data-protection methods

3. How does Pure SafeMode safeguard your data against ransomware?

Pure SafeMode enables organisations to lock down data from malicious attacks. SafeMode creates read-only snapshots of backup data and associated metadata catalogues.
