How prepared is your organization to face ransomware's evolving extortion tactics? Ransomware has moved far beyond just encrypting files and demanding payment. It has transformed into a complex, multi-layered threat enabled by double extortion and now – triple and quadruple extortion. Our CMO, Ryan Golden, dives deep into the different types of extortion techniques being used by ransomware attackers, including: -Double Extortion: Where attackers encrypt your data and exfiltrate it, threatening to release it publicly if you don’t pay. -Triple Extortion: Takes double extortion to another level by targeting business partners, clients, or customers to apply even more pressure. -Quadruple Extortion: Adds a fourth pressure point – DDoS attacks. If companies refuse to pay, attackers disrupt their online services, creating further urgency to comply with ransom demands. What's next? Ransomware tactics continue to evolve. Experts predict a rise in hybrid attacks that combine social engineering and insider threats with traditional ransomware methods. Halcyon’s Anti-Ransomware Platform combats these evolving threats, ensuring businesses can recover without needing backups and eliminating ransom payments altogether.
