Progent's Ransomware Forensics Analysis and Reporting in Bellevue
Progent's ransomware forensics experts can capture the evidence of a ransomware assault and perform a detailed forensics analysis without disrupting activity required for operational continuity and data restoration. Your Bellevue organization can use Progent's post-attack ransomware forensics documentation to counter subsequent ransomware assaults, assist in the restoration of lost data, and meet insurance and regulatory mandates.

Ransomware forensics analysis involves discovering and documenting the ransomware attack's storyline throughout the network from start to finish. This history of the way a ransomware assault progressed through the network assists you to assess the impact and highlights shortcomings in rules or work habits that need to be rectified to avoid future breaches. Forensics is usually assigned a top priority by the insurance provider and is often required by state and industry regulations. Because forensics can be time consuming, it is essential that other important activities like operational resumption are executed concurrently. Progent has an extensive team of IT and data security experts with the knowledge and experience required to carry out activities for containment, business continuity, and data restoration without interfering with forensic analysis.

Ransomware forensics investigation is time consuming and requires close interaction with the groups assigned to file restoration and, if needed, settlement negotiation with the ransomware threat actor. forensics can require the review of all logs, registry, Group Policy Object (GPO), Active Directory (AD), DNS servers, routers, firewalls, schedulers, and core Windows systems to look for anomalies.

Activities involved with forensics include:

• Isolate but avoid shutting off all possibly impacted devices from the network. This may involve closing all RDP ports and Internet facing network-attached storage, modifying admin credentials and user PWs, and configuring 2FA to secure your backups.
• Create forensically sound images of all suspect devices so the file restoration team can get started
• Preserve firewall, VPN, and additional key logs as quickly as possible
• Determine the type of ransomware used in the assault
• Examine every computer and storage device on the network as well as cloud storage for indications of compromise
• Catalog all encrypted devices
• Establish the type of ransomware involved in the attack
• Review logs and user sessions to establish the time frame of the ransomware assault and to identify any potential lateral migration from the first compromised system
• Identify the attack vectors exploited to carry out the ransomware attack
• Search for new executables surrounding the first encrypted files or system breach
• Parse Outlook web archives
• Examine email attachments
• Extract URLs embedded in email messages and check to see whether they are malware
• Produce comprehensive attack reporting to satisfy your insurance carrier and compliance regulations
• List recommended improvements to close security gaps and enforce workflows that reduce the exposure to a future ransomware breach
