Must-Have Ransomware Safeguards

Segment Your Network

If possible, segment your networks to keep critical computers isolated and to prevent the spread of malware in case of attack.

Turn off network shares (if not necessary).

Disconnect systems and segments where possible. Interconnectivity should be permitted based only upon demonstrated business need—otherwise, ransomware attacks can be accelerated and amplified.

This control can be a more difficult one to implement as it may require additional equipment, different process and procedures, etc.

Have a great Monday all!
