Tools & Best Practices to Prevent & Detect Ransomware
Besides employees, what are other doorways to your organization’s network? How do you secure them and find out if you’re infected by ransomware?
Ransomware Prevention & Detection Tools
Endpoint Protection
Endpoint protection can be used to prevent malware from executing its code on the endpoint, such as the employee’s computer or mobile device. Endpoint protection typically requires a small agent program to be installed on the endpoint device and operates similar to an anti-virus software. When a suspicious file is detected, the file will be uploaded to a quarantine zone for further analysis before they could be executed. Endpoint protection is great for preventing infection from email attachments.

Vulnerability Scanner and Patch
This method detects entry points where cyber criminals can potentially gain access to. This tool first discovers all the devices connected to the network and then scans each in order to compile software inventory. The scanned results will list all the software versions of each device and will notify system administrators to apply the patch to outdated versions, effectively shutting down potential entry points that can be exploited by cyber criminals.
Ransomware Rollback
This is used for ransomware detection instead of prevention. Tools that have ransomware rollback monitors the files within a system and keeps track of what program or process applied changes to each file. When changes were made to files, such as being modified, deleted, or encrypted by malware, this tool can be used to reverse that encryption. This is must be used in conjunction with the organization’s data backup.
Network monitoring
This tool is used to enhance access management by privileged users and admins. It monitors when the privileged accounts are used, how they’re used, and from where. It typically alerts the relevant administrator when a forced access attempt occurs. Some of these tools even automate a response that blocks access and disable accounts when the system thinks the account is compromised.
