Your Cheyenne organization can utilize Progent's forensics documentation to counter future ransomware assaults, assist in the restoration of encrypted data, and comply with insurance and regulatory mandates.

Ransomware forensics analysis is aimed at determining and describing the ransomware assault's storyline across the network from start to finish. This audit trail of how a ransomware attack travelled within the network assists you to evaluate the impact and uncovers shortcomings in policies or processes that need to be corrected to avoid later break-ins. Forensic analysis is commonly given a top priority by the cyber insurance provider and is typically mandated by state and industry regulations. Because forensic analysis can be time consuming, it is vital that other important activities such as business resumption are pursued in parallel. Progent maintains an extensive team of information technology and data security experts with the skills required to carry out the work of containment, business resumption, and data recovery without interfering with forensic analysis.

Ransomware forensics investigation is arduous and requires intimate cooperation with the groups focused on data recovery and, if necessary, settlement discussions with the ransomware Threat Actor. forensics can involve the review of all logs, registry, GPO, AD, DNS servers, routers, firewalls, schedulers, and basic Windows systems to detect variations.

Services associated with forensics include:

• Detach but avoid shutting off all potentially suspect devices from the system. This can involve closing all RDP ports and Internet facing network-attached storage, changing admin credentials and user PWs, and setting up 2FA to secure backups.
• Capture forensically sound images of all exposed devices so your data recovery team can get started
• Preserve firewall, virtual private network, and additional critical logs as quickly as feasible
• Determine the type of ransomware used in the assault
• Inspect every machine and data store on the network including cloud storage for signs of encryption
• Inventory all compromised devices
• Establish the type of ransomware involved in the assault
• Study logs and user sessions to establish the timeline of the ransomware assault and to spot any possible sideways movement from the first compromised system
• Identify the attack vectors used to carry out the ransomware attack
• Look for new executables associated with the original encrypted files or network compromise
• Parse Outlook web archives
• Examine email attachments
• Separate URLs embedded in email messages and check to see whether they are malware
• Provide extensive incident documentation to meet your insurance carrier and compliance requirements
• Document recommendations to close cybersecurity gaps and enforce processes that lower the risk of a future ransomware exploit
