Ransomware attacks are on the rise, targeting businesses and individuals alike. These attacks encrypt your data and demand payment to release it. Here's how you can stay ahead:

• Understand the Threat: Ransomware can be delivered via phishing emails, malicious ads, or exploit kits on compromised websites.
• Invest in Advanced Security Solutions: Endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools can identify threats before they escalate.
• Never Pay the Ransom: There’s no guarantee attackers will release your files, and payment encourages further attacks.
• Have Multiple Backups: Store backups in different locations, including offline, to ensure data recovery.

Awareness and preparation are your best defenses against ransomware, a growing global concern.
