Every security vendor has a different approach to ransomware. We’re no exception, but there’s an important twist – our automated microsegmentation with multi-factor authentication (MFA) everywhere approach actually works. Using similar techniques to ones used by the NSA, Mossad, and other government organizations, MFA-based cyber defense holds the potential to truly stop ransomware in its tracks.
Recently, Zero Networks hosted a webinar where we simulated infamous ransomware attacks from the past year against two nearly identical environments – the only difference being that one environment had Zero Networks deployed while the other did not.
Some of the key takeaways:
- After running a quick scan of each environment using TrustMeter, our free network visibility tool, we found that the environment without Zero Networks had 85% of their assets accessible to attackers while the environment with Zero Networks fully deployed had only 16% of assets accessible to attackers.
- Without Zero Networks, the first environment was easily penetrated. Using free open-source tools like Armitage (the original version of Cobalt Strike), Mimikatz, and ShinoLocker, the simulated attacker gained credentials and spread throughout the network in a matter of seconds. Simulating the same attack against the environment protected by Zero Networks, the attacker could not access any machine.
- Even after giving the attacker domain admin credentials, they still could not exploit the machine because all assets and protocols were protected by MFA.
