Ransomware is deadly for your business

This morning I received a phone call again from customer who was in a panic.
He had received a weird mail but still opened the attachment ... Consequence, all his files were held hostage and even his local backup was broken.

Many companies have become victims of Ransomware or, in a lesser case, of Spyware and Adware in recent years.

Most of these things enter the network via e-mail.
A user who is not attentive for a moment, activates the Ransomware with a click.

As a result, all your files are encrypted and entire servers go down!
This will cost you loads of money and days of unemployment.

You can avoid this.
See below how.

Protect computers and servers against ransomware and viruses

Ransomware, viruses, or spyware usually enter through an unsuspecting user who opens a link or attachment in an email.

The ransomware will then quickly spread throughout the internal network and cause the following:

• Infect all computers and servers
• Encrypt all data
• Completely remove on-site backups on NAS and similar devices

In short, you can either close the books or pay the extortionists hoping that they will no longer hold your data hostage.

With SentinelOne you can protect your computers and servers against a full-blown outbreak:

• SentinelOne detects ransomware on the computer and stops it from executing
• SentinelOne isolates the computer from the rest of the network, preventing its spread to other machines
• Unknown threats are sent to a team of specialists who analyze them. This involves human intervention, not just databases of known ransomware and viruses

These actions combined with an off-site backup in the cloud will allow you to emerge from such an attack unscathed.

Do not lose e-mails thanks to a fraud-resistant 50 GB email archive.

• secure external storage
• automatic indexing
• compatible with various e-mail services
• Office 365 Support
• unlimited archiving period
• saved completely encrypted

If you have a colleague who has opened a wrong mail in his oversight, make sure you can fall back on a full backup.
