Progent's Ransomware Forensics Investigation and Reporting Services in Brasília
Progent's ransomware forensics consultants can save the system state after a ransomware assault and carry out a comprehensive forensics investigation without impeding activity required for operational continuity and data recovery. Your Brasília organization can utilize Progent's post-attack ransomware forensics documentation to combat future ransomware assaults, assist in the recovery of encrypted data, and comply with insurance and governmental requirements.

Ransomware forensics analysis involves determining and describing the ransomware attack's storyline throughout the network from start to finish. This audit trail of how a ransomware assault progressed through the network helps your IT staff to evaluate the damage and brings to light weaknesses in rules or work habits that should be rectified to avoid later break-ins. Forensic analysis is usually given a high priority by the insurance provider and is often required by government and industry regulations. Because forensic analysis can be time consuming, it is critical that other important activities like operational continuity are executed in parallel. Progent has an extensive roster of IT and security experts with the skills required to perform activities for containment, operational continuity, and data restoration without interfering with forensics.

Ransomware forensics is time consuming and requires intimate interaction with the teams assigned to data cleanup and, if necessary, settlement talks with the ransomware adversary. forensics can require the examination of all logs, registry, Group Policy Object, AD, DNS servers, routers, firewalls, schedulers, and basic Windows systems to detect anomalies.

Activities associated with forensics include:

• Disconnect but avoid shutting off all possibly impacted devices from the network. This can require closing all RDP ports and Internet facing network-attached storage, modifying admin credentials and user PWs, and setting up 2FA to protect backups.
• Capture forensically complete images of all exposed devices so your file recovery group can get started
• Preserve firewall, virtual private network, and other critical logs as soon as feasible
• Identify the version of ransomware used in the assault
• Examine every computer and storage device on the system as well as cloud-hosted storage for signs of encryption
• Inventory all compromised devices
• Determine the kind of ransomware involved in the attack
• Review logs and sessions to establish the timeline of the attack and to spot any possible sideways migration from the first infected machine
• Identify the security gaps exploited to perpetrate the ransomware attack
• Look for the creation of executables surrounding the first encrypted files or system compromise
• Parse Outlook PST files
• Analyze email attachments
• Separate URLs from email messages and determine if they are malicious
• Provide comprehensive attack reporting to satisfy your insurance and compliance requirements
• Suggest recommendations to shore up security gaps and improve workflows that lower the exposure to a future ransomware exploit
