Financial institution is hit by a ransomware attack

Think your financial institution is immune to ransomware? Think again.

Many organizations in the financial services sector don’t expect to be hit by ransomware. In the recent State of Ransomware in Financial Services 2021 survey by Sophos, 119 financial services respondents indicated that their organizations were not hit by any ransomware attacks in the past year, and they do not expect to be hit by them in the future either.

The respondents mentioned that their confidence relied on the following beliefs:

  • They are not targets for ransomware
  • They possess cybersecurity insurance against ransomware
  • They have air-gapped backups to restore any lost data
  • They work with specialist cybersecurity companies which run full Security Operations Centers (SOC)
  • They have anti-ransomware technology in place
  • They have trained IT security staff who can hinder ransomware attacks

It’s not all good news. Some results are cause for concern. Many financial services respondents that don’t expect to be hit (61%) are putting their faith in approaches that don’t offer any protection from ransomware.

  • 41% cited cybersecurity insurance against ransomware. Insurance helps cover the cost of dealing with an attack, but doesn’t stop the attack itself.
  • 42% cited air-gapped backups. While backups are valuable tools for restoring data post attack, they don’t stop you getting hit.

While many organizations believe they have the correct safeguards in place to mitigate ransomware attacks, 11% believe that they are not a target of ransomware at all. Sadly, this is not true. No organization is safe. So, what are financial institutions to do?

While advanced and automated technologies are essential elements of an effective anti-ransomware defense, stopping hands-on attackers also requires human monitoring and intervention by skilled professionals. Whether in-house staff or outsourced pros, human experts are uniquely able to identify some of the tell-tale signs that ransomware attackers have you in their sights. It is strongly recommended that all organizations build up their human expertise in the face of the ongoing ransomware threat.

“At Intellyx, we get dozens of PR pitches each day from a wide range of vendors,” said Jason Bloomberg, President of Intellyx. “We will only set up briefings with the most disruptive and innovative firms in their space. That’s why it made sense for us to call out the companies that made the cut.”

Aunalytics Unveils Secure Managed Services with Integrated Security

Next-Generation Technology Suite Delivers Secure Managed IT to Power Business

South Bend, IN (September 27, 2021) – Aunalytics, a leading data platform company delivering Insights-as-a-Service for enterprise businesses, today announced the company’s Secure Managed Services offering. The new service stack combines mission critical IT services leveraging zero trust end-to-end security to ensure people and data are protected regardless of location.

Organizational data is extremely valuable to the longevity and success of a business. The ever-changing threat landscape presents serious risks to organizations because of bad actors working to steal and encrypt important operational data. In addition to phishing scams and other common threats, security incidents over the last 12 months have included malware, ransomware, and crypto-jacking – made worse through compromised accounts and exposed data. In 2020, malware attacks increased by 358% and ransomware attacks by 435% over attacks in 2019.

As a trusted partner, Aunalytics is no longer offering its enterprise-class IT services without integrated security. Next generation managed services now must include embedded security that adapts as threats emerge. Next generation security requires focus on users and access to corporate data by a distributed workforce often working from remote locations, home offices or using personal devices to access company systems and data. Aunalytics understands this requirement and has developed the new Secure Managed Services stack with a full suite of managed IT and integrated security services to empower business with a complete, all-encompassing approach.

New Aunalytics Secure Managed Services features include:

  • 24/7/365 Monitoring & Management – Mitigate risks to valuable infrastructure going down or becoming unavailable. Aunalytics manages hardware and software, and works proactively to address any issues.
  • Synchronized Network Security Platform – Protect networks and endpoints from advanced threats with next-generation anti-virus protection and management.
  • Workstation & Server Patching – Ensure servers and workstations are always protected through operating system security patching, including feature releases.
  • Internet Protection – Guard against Internet threats with Sophos Central and Cisco Umbrella combined solution providing website protection, DNS filtering and roaming DNS protection.
  • Email Filtering and Security – Protect email inboxes for all employees with Microsoft Defender (Advanced Threat Protection).
  • Office 365 Management and Security – Manage and protect Office 365 instances with Microsoft Defender and Azure Security.
  • Multi-Factor Authentication – Control Identity and access management with Duo or Okta based multi-factor authentication solutions.
  • Data and Device Encryption Management – Encrypt data and control privacy with Sophos Central Encryption.
  • Security Awareness Training – Prepare employees to be more security-aware. As attacks are more people-focused than ever, Aunalytics will help drive effective security training and testing campaigns.

For highly regulated industries, a managed security operations center (SOC) is typically the most important requirement of modern IT security. However, SOCs are expensive, complicated, and far beyond the reach of most small and medium size enterprises. Aunalytics now offers an Advanced Security services stack, so that clients can focus on growing their businesses while Aunalytics experts provide an SOC to continuously monitor and manage threats. Similarly, Aunalytics now offers Advanced Compliance managed services to provide guidance and expertise for clients to meet compliance standards such as SOC, HIPAA, PCI, FFIEC, and NIST 800-171, 800-53 (CMMC & FedRAMP).

“A large number of organizations are not appropriately equipped to handle 24×7 monitoring of network, systems infrastructure, and security operations,” said Paula Musich, Research Director, Enterprise Management Associates. “The integration of these and other important capabilities into Aunalytics’ managed services suite is a critical step to ensuring resilience in the event of a potentially destructive attack.”

“We have made the paradigm shift from trying to operationalize a collection of IT and security tools to a holistic view of stability and security that adapts as ever-changing threats evolve,” said Kerry Vickers, Chief Information Security Officer, Aunalytics.
