Navigating the Ransomware Perfect Storm

At the Cyber Security & Data Protection Summit, in November, we welcomed Justin-Vaughan Brown, VP Product Marketing and Communications at Deep Instinct to analyse and explore the deep learning-driven, prevention first approach to ransomware.

• 57% see unknown malware as the primary factor limiting threat prevention
• Over 50% quote the sheer volume of unknown malware as the biggest barrier to detection
• 24.4 hours is the average time to respond to a security incident – over 3 working days
• Traditional AV technologies missed nearly 75% of Q1 2021 malware
• Critical infrastructure, healthcare and government offices are seen as high impact targets

This session looks at ways to address this “perfect storm” of increasing attack volumes, expanded threat vectors and a targeted focus on public sector bodies. It highlights the opportunities deep learning brings to prevent ransomware and other malware in <20 ms before an attacker can gain persistence.
