Ransomware remains a significant threat to organizations worldwide, with defenses increasingly failing against both known and emerging strains. Continuous validation through Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) is essential to identify vulnerabilities and improve resilience. #BlackByte #FAUST
Keypoints
- Ransomware attacks continue to be highly effective, with prevention rates dropping significantly in 2025.
- Both established and new ransomware strains are evading defenses at comparable rates.
- Data exfiltration prevention is alarmingly low, fueling double extortion tactics.
- Gaps in malware delivery, detection, and endpoint protection allow ransomware to succeed.
- Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) provides continuous, real-time testing to validate and strengthen defenses.
