The long road ahead to ransomware preparedness
Getting to the bigger truth
The ransomware threat is a top-of-mind issue for so many organisations; however, few feel totally prepared for an attack. Without an industry reference architecture or blueprint for ransomware protection, organisations are building their own strategies and processes to respond.
