Progent's Ransomware Forensics Investigation and Reporting Services in Florianópolis
Progent's ransomware forensics experts can preserve the evidence of a ransomware attack and perform a detailed forensics analysis without impeding the processes required for business resumption and data restoration. Your Florianópolis business can use Progent's post-attack ransomware forensics documentation to block future ransomware attacks, validate the restoration of encrypted data, and meet insurance and governmental mandates.

Ransomware forensics analysis involves determining and documenting the ransomware attack's storyline across the network from start to finish. This audit trail of how a ransomware assault travelled within the network helps your IT staff to evaluate the damage and highlights weaknesses in rules or work habits that need to be corrected to prevent later break-ins. Forensics is commonly given a top priority by the insurance carrier and is typically required by state and industry regulations. Because forensic analysis can be time consuming, it is essential that other important recovery processes such as business continuity are executed in parallel. Progent has an extensive roster of information technology and cybersecurity experts with the knowledge and experience required to perform the work of containment, business resumption, and data recovery without disrupting forensics.

Ransomware forensics investigation is complex and requires close cooperation with the teams assigned to data restoration and, if necessary, settlement negotiation with the ransomware hacker. forensics can involve the review of all logs, registry, Group Policy Object (GPO), AD, DNS, routers, firewalls, scheduled tasks, and basic Windows systems to detect variations.

Services involved with forensics include:

• Disconnect without shutting down all potentially suspect devices from the network. This may require closing all Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) ports and Internet connected network-attached storage, changing admin credentials and user passwords, and implementing 2FA to secure your backups.
• Create forensically sound images of all exposed devices so your file restoration team can proceed
• Preserve firewall, VPN, and additional key logs as soon as possible
• Determine the kind of ransomware involved in the attack
• Survey every machine and storage device on the network including cloud storage for indications of compromise
• Inventory all encrypted devices
• Establish the kind of ransomware involved in the assault
• Study logs and sessions to establish the time frame of the ransomware attack and to identify any potential lateral migration from the originally infected machine
• Identify the attack vectors used to perpetrate the ransomware assault
• Search for the creation of executables associated with the original encrypted files or system breach
• Parse Outlook PST files
• Examine attachments
• Separate any URLs from messages and determine whether they are malware
• Produce detailed incident documentation to meet your insurance carrier and compliance mandates
• Suggest recommendations to shore up security vulnerabilities and enforce workflows that reduce the risk of a future ransomware exploit
