You get the following e-mail. What do you do next? “Your network has been penetrated. All files on each host in the network have been encrypted with a strong algorithm. Backups were either encrypted or destroyed. Shadow copies have also been removed.
If you want to restore your file, write emails to the contacts listed at the bottom of this note. You must pay for decryption in Bitcoin (BTC). Do not try to decrypt your data using third party software. Do not rename encrypted files. Do not involve the FBI.
After 2 weeks, all your files and keys will be deleted automatically.”
This course will help you prepare for a ransomware attack. The construction industry is among the industries with the most ransomware attacks. Set yourself up to prevent and mitigate a potentially catastrophic cyber-security event.
