Progent's Ransomware Forensics and Reporting in Vacaville
Progent's ransomware forensics consultants can capture the system state after a ransomware assault and carry out a detailed forensics analysis without impeding activity related to operational continuity and data restoration. Your Vacaville business can use Progent's ransomware forensics report to block subsequent ransomware assaults, validate the recovery of lost data, and comply with insurance and regulatory requirements.

Ransomware forensics analysis involves determining and documenting the ransomware attack's progress across the network from beginning to end. This history of how a ransomware assault travelled through the network assists you to evaluate the impact and highlights vulnerabilities in policies or work habits that need to be corrected to prevent future break-ins. Forensics is usually given a high priority by the cyber insurance provider and is often mandated by state and industry regulations. Because forensic analysis can be time consuming, it is vital that other important activities such as operational resumption are performed in parallel. Progent has a large team of IT and data security experts with the skills needed to carry out the work of containment, business resumption, and data recovery without interfering with forensics.

Ransomware forensics investigation is complex and requires close cooperation with the groups focused on file cleanup and, if necessary, payment negotiation with the ransomware Threat Actor. forensics can require the examination of logs, registry, Group Policy Object, Active Directory (AD), DNS, routers, firewalls, schedulers, and basic Windows systems to check for variations.

Services involved with forensics analysis include:

• Isolate without shutting down all possibly affected devices from the network. This may require closing all RDP ports and Internet connected network-attached storage, changing admin credentials and user PWs, and setting up 2FA to protect your backups.
• Create forensically valid digital images of all exposed devices so the data restoration team can proceed
• Save firewall, VPN, and additional critical logs as quickly as possible
• Determine the kind of ransomware used in the assault
• Inspect each machine and data store on the network including cloud-hosted storage for signs of encryption
• Inventory all compromised devices
• Determine the type of ransomware used in the attack
• Study log activity and user sessions in order to establish the time frame of the assault and to spot any possible lateral migration from the originally infected system
• Identify the attack vectors exploited to carry out the ransomware assault
• Look for the creation of executables associated with the original encrypted files or network compromise
• Parse Outlook PST files
• Examine attachments
• Separate any URLs embedded in messages and check to see whether they are malicious
• Produce extensive attack reporting to meet your insurance carrier and compliance requirements
• Suggest recommended improvements to close security vulnerabilities and improve workflows that reduce the exposure to a future ransomware breach
