"Most Active Ransomware Strains Targeting Enterprise Networks"

A study conducted by Beazley Breach Response (BBR), found that over 70 percent of ransomware attacks reported by the company's customers in 2018 targeted small-to-medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Researchers believe that SMBs are at a higher risk of being targeted in ransomware attacks because they tend to spend less on information security than larger companies. There are several active ransomware strains that target enterprise networks, including Mailto, Snake, Ragnar Locker, Zeppelin, TFlower, and MegaCotertex. This article continues to discuss six of the most active ransomware strains focussed on hitting enterprise networks, the rise in ransomware attacks against SMB networks, changes in ransomware attack vectors, and how businesses can bolster their defenses against such attacks.
