Avoid being held hostage
Ransomware Attacks
Ransomware perpetrators hold businesses hostage by locking them out of their own critical data through encryption. METCLOUD has comprehensive strategies to help protect businesses from this form of cyber extortion.
HOW RANSOMWARE ATTACKS HIT YOU
With the global cost of cybercrime predicted to reach 15.63 trillion U.S. dollars by 2029, the virulence of ransomware attacks is more intense than ever before. SMEs are particularly vulnerable to these attacks because they are typically more lucrative and less risky to threat actors.
Many small-medium businesses have yet to scale their cybersecurity measures accordingly, leaving an abundance of them vulnerable to malicious infiltration.
CYBER EXTORTION – REAL CONSEQUENCES
Ransomware attacks are highly specific and damaging to businesses of all sizes. To smaller businesses, the effects can be crippling. With business-critical data held at ransom, operations not only grind to a halt, the reputation and integrity of a business is at stake.
How much are you prepared to pay a cybercriminal for a chance to get your data back?
The global average of ransom paid to these perpetrators in 2024 was $2.73 million, up from $1.82 million in 2023. Of the businesses that paid ransoms, as many as 80% are targeted with a second ransomware attack. Furthermore, paying the ransom does not guarantee that the data is completely returned without some level of corruption.
