Jeremy and Robert sit down with Ransomware Sommelier Allan Liska to unravel the complex world of Ransomware, the criminals that engage in this activity, and the growing risk of new forms of extortion. Allan, with over 20 years in the field, delves into the mindset of ransomware actors, crucial monitoring strategies, and the battle taking place on the cyber frontier. He reveals why paying ransoms is not just a financial decision but a catalyst for further attacks on all companies, and how both small organizations and large corporations can better prepare for and respond to these digital extortion schemes.
