This MetaCompliance white paper is a CISO’s guide to ransomware prevention and recovery. It details the evolving threat landscape, including phishing, Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS), supply chain attacks, and AI-generated exploits. It recommends a defense-in-depth approach, combining patch management, least privilege, phishing simulations, and security training. Recovery involves a three-step plan: incident response, secure backup restoration, and transparent communication. The paper emphasizes that ransomware is now a billion-dollar global industry, and human-centric attacks remain the top vector. Prevention, layered defenses, and preparedness are essential.
