Ransomware Risk Assessment

Ransomware risk assessment is the process of evaluating the threats posed by ransomware attacks to an organization. It involves identifying vulnerabilities, assessing the likelihood and impact of an attack, and developing mitigation strategies: asset inventory, vulnerability assessment, and threat analysis. Risks are identified, prioritized, and countered through mitigation planning, which may involve security controls and employee training. Ongoing monitoring and review ensure the effectiveness of measures in an ever-evolving risk landscape. The goal is to protect systems, data, and operations against ransomware.

ThreatNG's all-in-one External Attack Surface Management (EASM), Digital Risk Protection (DRP), and Security Ratings Ransomware Assessment and Monitoring offer comprehensive ransomware risk assessment and mitigation solutions.

EASM helps identify an organization's external attack surface by scanning and monitoring its internet-facing assets, such as websites, domains, and IP addresses. By comprehensively mapping an organization's digital footprint, EASM enables the identification of potential vulnerabilities that ransomware attackers could exploit. It aids in asset inventory and vulnerability assessment, crucial steps in ransomware risk assessment.

DRP focuses on protecting an organization's digital assets from various risks, including ransomware attacks. It employs advanced threat intelligence and monitoring techniques to detect and mitigate threats. DRP can see indicators of compromise (IOCs) associated with ransomware strains, enabling early detection and response to potential attacks. By proactively monitoring and protecting against ransomware threats, DRP helps organizations minimize the likelihood and impact of ransomware incidents.

Security Ratings Ransomware Assessment and Monitoring provide ongoing monitoring and evaluation of an organization's security posture concerning ransomware risks. Continuously monitoring an organization's security ratings helps in risk monitoring and review, enabling proactive measures to address any identified weaknesses or vulnerabilities.

Collectively, ThreatNG's EASM, DRP, and Security Ratings Ransomware Assessment and Monitoring offer a comprehensive suite of tools and services to assist organizations in their ransomware risk assessment and mitigation efforts. These solutions help organizations identify vulnerabilities, proactively protect against ransomware threats, and continuously monitor and improve their security posture to reduce the risk of ransomware incidents.
