Progent's Ransomware Forensics and Reporting Services in Brooklyn
Progent's ransomware forensics experts can preserve the system state after a ransomware attack and perform a comprehensive forensics investigation without disrupting the processes related to business resumption and data restoration. Your Brooklyn organization can utilize Progent's post-attack ransomware forensics documentation to counter subsequent ransomware attacks, validate the cleanup of lost data, and meet insurance carrier and governmental reporting requirements.

Ransomware forensics is aimed at discovering and describing the ransomware assault's storyline throughout the targeted network from beginning to end. This history of how a ransomware assault travelled within the network helps your IT staff to evaluate the impact and highlights vulnerabilities in security policies or work habits that should be corrected to prevent later break-ins. Forensics is commonly assigned a top priority by the cyber insurance provider and is often required by state and industry regulations. Because forensic analysis can take time, it is vital that other key activities such as business resumption are performed concurrently. Progent maintains an extensive roster of IT and security professionals with the skills needed to perform the work of containment, business resumption, and data restoration without disrupting forensic analysis.

Ransomware forensics investigation is arduous and calls for intimate interaction with the groups responsible for file recovery and, if necessary, payment talks with the ransomware adversary. Ransomware forensics typically require the review of logs, registry, GPO, AD, DNS, routers, firewalls, schedulers, and core Windows systems to detect variations.

Services associated with forensics include:

• Isolate without shutting off all possibly suspect devices from the system. This can require closing all Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) ports and Internet facing network-attached storage, changing admin credentials and user passwords, and configuring 2FA to protect your backups.
• Preserve forensically complete images of all suspect devices so the file recovery team can proceed
• Save firewall, VPN, and other key logs as soon as possible
• Establish the strain of ransomware used in the assault
• Examine every machine and storage device on the system including cloud-hosted storage for indications of compromise
• Catalog all compromised devices
• Establish the kind of ransomware involved in the assault
• Review logs and user sessions in order to determine the time frame of the attack and to identify any possible lateral migration from the originally compromised system
• Identify the security gaps used to perpetrate the ransomware assault
• Search for new executables surrounding the original encrypted files or network breach
• Parse Outlook web archives
• Examine email attachments
• Separate any URLs from email messages and check to see if they are malware
• Produce detailed incident documentation to satisfy your insurance carrier and compliance regulations
• List recommended improvements to shore up cybersecurity gaps and enforce processes that lower the exposure to a future ransomware exploit
