Progent's Ransomware Forensics and Reporting Services in Ipanema
Progent's ransomware forensics experts can preserve the evidence of a ransomware assault and perform a comprehensive forensics analysis without slowing down the processes related to business resumption and data recovery. Your Ipanema organization can utilize Progent's post-attack ransomware forensics documentation to combat subsequent ransomware attacks, assist in the recovery of lost data, and comply with insurance carrier and governmental mandates.

Ransomware forensics analysis is aimed at tracking and documenting the ransomware attack's progress throughout the targeted network from beginning to end. This audit trail of how a ransomware attack travelled within the network helps your IT staff to assess the damage and highlights vulnerabilities in rules or work habits that should be corrected to avoid future breaches. Forensics is commonly assigned a top priority by the cyber insurance carrier and is typically mandated by state and industry regulations. Because forensics can be time consuming, it is essential that other key activities like operational continuity are executed concurrently. Progent maintains an extensive roster of IT and data security experts with the skills required to perform the work of containment, operational resumption, and data recovery without disrupting forensic analysis.

Ransomware forensics investigation is complex and calls for intimate cooperation with the teams assigned to data cleanup and, if needed, settlement negotiation with the ransomware Threat Actor. Ransomware forensics typically require the review of all logs, registry, Group Policy Object (GPO), Active Directory (AD), DNS, routers, firewalls, schedulers, and basic Windows systems to check for changes.

Services involved with forensics analysis include:

• Isolate without shutting off all potentially impacted devices from the network. This may involve closing all RDP ports and Internet connected network-attached storage, changing admin credentials and user passwords, and implementing 2FA to secure backups.
• Preserve forensically valid duplicates of all suspect devices so your file recovery group can proceed
• Preserve firewall, virtual private network, and other key logs as soon as possible
• Identify the variety of ransomware involved in the assault
• Survey every computer and data store on the system including cloud storage for signs of encryption
• Inventory all compromised devices
• Establish the kind of ransomware involved in the assault
• Study logs and sessions in order to establish the timeline of the attack and to spot any possible lateral movement from the first infected machine
• Identify the attack vectors exploited to perpetrate the ransomware assault
• Search for new executables surrounding the original encrypted files or system compromise
• Parse Outlook PST files
• Examine attachments
• Separate URLs from messages and determine whether they are malicious
• Provide extensive incident documentation to meet your insurance carrier and compliance regulations
• Suggest recommendations to shore up cybersecurity vulnerabilities and enforce processes that reduce the exposure to a future ransomware breach
