Ransomware remains one of the most devastating cyber threats, but many organizations still lack a comprehensive defense and response strategy. In this session, I’ll present a ransomware playbook that covers everything from prevention to post-attack recovery. I’ll break down the key components of a successful ransomware defense, including endpoint detection and response (EDR), backups, and network segmentation, and how to integrate these into a cohesive strategy.

Using real-world case studies of ransomware attacks, I’ll highlight what worked in terms of prevention and recovery, and where organizations went wrong. I’ll also discuss the role of cyberinsurance in ransomware defense, including what policies typically cover and how to avoid claim disputes.

Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how to build a ransomware defense strategy, actionable steps for preventing attacks, and best practices for responding to and recovering from ransomware incidents.
