While you may be tired of hearing about the trend and just getting used to the reality, you may also like to remember: instances of attacks are climbing - quickly - and we're now reaching a level where more than half of ransomware schemes result in a business paying out.

As with any commercialized form of criminality, the attacks are becoming more sophisticated.

Ransomware is moving from opportunistic, mass-mailing attacks to carefully curated, targeted approaches led by phishing.

As infections become more forceful, harder to detect until it's too late, and more personally focused, the fear grows that more and more vital organizations will be hit.

This webcast - brought to you by KnowBe4 - will teach you key ways in which you can become more aware of the dangers, begin locking down your systems, and begin to seriously protect yourself from ransomware.
