Cyberthreats have reached record highs and are continuing to expand in both scope and sophistication, with one goal in mind – compromise your systems and your data. And while encryption is still a primary focal point for ransomware gangs, bad actors have evolved, employing double and triple extortion tactics to exploit businesses data. In fact, over 83% of ransomware attacks today involve some form of data leakage, exfiltration, or theft. Put differently, most ransomware threats aren’t just focus on holding your data hostage but monetizing it in new ways. Cyber deception arms today’s businesses with early warning signals into ransomware attacks. While conventional security tools aim to harden and fortify your perimeter from threats, cyber deception actively defends against threats that have successfully bypassed or breached customer environments. Using sophisticated decoys, cyber deception solutions engage bad actors the moment an attack begins. This delivers a multi-layered defense against ongoing attacks, equipping businesses with capabilities to immediately divert and spot silent threats - before data is lost, damaged, or compromised.
