Progent's ransomware forensics consultants can save the system state after a ransomware attack and carry out a detailed forensics analysis without interfering with the processes related to business continuity and data restoration. Your Uberlândia organization can use Progent's forensics report to block subsequent ransomware assaults, validate the recovery of lost data, and meet insurance and regulatory reporting requirements.

Ransomware forensics involves tracking and documenting the ransomware attack's storyline throughout the network from beginning to end. This history of the way a ransomware assault progressed within the network assists your IT staff to evaluate the impact and brings to light weaknesses in rules or work habits that should be corrected to avoid later break-ins. Forensic analysis is usually given a high priority by the insurance carrier and is typically mandated by government and industry regulations. Because forensic analysis can take time, it is essential that other key recovery processes like business continuity are executed in parallel. Progent maintains a large roster of IT and cybersecurity professionals with the knowledge and experience required to carry out the work of containment, operational resumption, and data restoration without interfering with forensic analysis.

Ransomware forensics investigation is time consuming and requires intimate interaction with the groups focused on data cleanup and, if necessary, payment discussions with the ransomware hacker. forensics typically involve the review of all logs, registry, Group Policy Object, Active Directory, DNS servers, routers, firewalls, schedulers, and core Windows systems to check for changes.

Activities associated with forensics include:

• Detach without shutting off all potentially suspect devices from the system. This can involve closing all RDP ports and Internet connected NAS storage, modifying admin credentials and user passwords, and configuring 2FA to protect backups.
• Capture forensically sound images of all exposed devices so your file recovery group can proceed
• Preserve firewall, VPN, and additional key logs as quickly as possible
• Determine the version of ransomware used in the attack
• Examine every computer and data store on the network including cloud-hosted storage for indications of encryption
• Inventory all compromised devices
• Establish the type of ransomware used in the attack
• Study logs and user sessions in order to determine the timeline of the ransomware attack and to identify any possible lateral movement from the first compromised system
• Understand the attack vectors exploited to perpetrate the ransomware assault
• Look for new executables associated with the original encrypted files or network breach
• Parse Outlook web archives
• Examine email attachments
• Separate any URLs embedded in email messages and check to see whether they are malicious
• Provide detailed incident documentation to meet your insurance and compliance requirements
• Suggest recommendations to shore up cybersecurity gaps and improve workflows that lower the risk of a future ransomware exploit
