Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Who gets targeted by ransomware?

Ransomware targets businesses of all sizes, from SMBs to large enterprises. In 2023, ransomware payments exceeded $1 billion, highlighting the severity of the threat.
The rise of Initial Access Brokers (IABs) and AI-driven ransomware has made attacks more frequent and sophisticated, increasing risks for all industries.

  • Phishing Emails: Malicious attachments or links trick users into downloading ransomware.

  • Drive-by Downloads: Visiting a compromised website unknowingly installs ransomware.

  • Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) Attacks: Hackers exploit weak credentials to gain system access.

  • Software Vulnerabilities: Outdated software is a common entry point for ransomware attacks.

Victims may suffer from:
  • Data encryption & loss
  • Financial damages from ransom payments
  • Operational downtime
  • Legal liabilities & compliance issues
  • Brand reputation damage
With ransomware attacks becoming more aggressive and costly, Sangfor’s anti-ransomware solutions offer cutting-edge protection to prevent, detect, and mitigate cyber threats effectively.

Overall, antivirus alone may protect your organisation against ransomware, at a basic level, but it won’t stop it after it’s infiltrated your system

Ransomware is a type of Malware that prevents one from using his/her computer or accessing certain files unless he/she pays a ransom. It often encrypts files so that they cannot be opened.
