Ransomware Ready:
How Multi-Signal MDR Can Bolster Your Ability to Detect and Respond

With the rise of Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) business models and sophisticated attacker tactics and techniques, it’s likely that many security professionals may feel unprepared to stop ransomware attacks effectively.

Unfortunately, very few organizations have the 24/7 staffing and resources to defend themselves against skilled, determined threat actors. In fact, recent surveys of cybersecurity professionals conducted by CyberRisk Alliance (CRA) Business Intelligence found that 43% of respondents had suffered at least one ransomware attack in the past 2 years, and 58% of those attacked had paid a ransom.

So, how can security leaders mitigate the risk of ransomware and be more prepared?

"Any organization that wants to really build their resilience and improve their chances of being able to anticipate, withstand and quickly recover from a cyber event should be looking at an MDR provider, regardless of their size or the industry that they're in," says Tia Hopkins, Chief Cyber Resilience Officer and Field CTO at eSentire.
