Ransomware forensics involves tracking and describing the ransomware attack's storyline throughout the targeted network from beginning to end. This history of the way a ransomware assault travelled through the network helps you to assess the impact and uncovers gaps in rules or processes that need to be rectified to avoid future break-ins. Forensic analysis is usually assigned a top priority by the insurance provider and is typically mandated by government and industry regulations. Since forensics can take time, it is critical that other key activities like operational resumption are performed concurrently. Progent has a large roster of IT and security experts with the skills required to carry out activities for containment, business continuity, and data restoration without disrupting forensics.

Ransomware forensics analysis is complex and calls for close interaction with the groups responsible for file recovery and, if needed, settlement talks with the ransomware Threat Actor. Ransomware forensics can involve the review of logs, registry, Group Policy Object, Active Directory, DNS, routers, firewalls, scheduled tasks, and basic Windows systems to detect variations.

Services associated with forensics include:

• Isolate but avoid shutting down all possibly suspect devices from the network. This can require closing all Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) ports and Internet facing network-attached storage, changing admin credentials and user passwords, and setting up 2FA to protect your backups.
• Preserve forensically complete duplicates of all exposed devices so your file restoration team can get started
• Preserve firewall, virtual private network, and other key logs as soon as feasible
• Establish the type of ransomware involved in the assault
• Examine every machine and data store on the system including cloud storage for indications of compromise
• Inventory all compromised devices
• Establish the type of ransomware involved in the assault
• Review logs and user sessions in order to determine the timeline of the attack and to identify any potential sideways migration from the originally infected system
• Understand the attack vectors exploited to carry out the ransomware attack
• Search for new executables surrounding the original encrypted files or network compromise
• Parse Outlook web archives
• Analyze email attachments
• Separate URLs from email messages and determine if they are malware
• Produce detailed attack reporting to satisfy your insurance carrier and compliance mandates
• List recommendations to close cybersecurity vulnerabilities and enforce processes that lower the exposure to a future ransomware breach
