A New Breed of Attacks
Ransomware has evolved. It is no longer just about locking your files. In 2026, we see Triple Extortion: 1. Encrypting data, 2. Threatening to leak it, and 3. Harassing your clients or employees to pressure you into paying.
How Ransomware Enters Your Network
- Phishing 2.0: Highly personalized emails using AI-generated content.
- RDP Vulnerabilities: Unsecured remote desktop connections are easy targets for brute force.
The Kian Technologies Defense Strategy
Never rely solely on backups. You need an Immutable Backup strategy—data that cannot be deleted or changed even by an admin. Additionally, Zero Trust Architecture ensures that even if one device is infected, the malware cannot spread across the network.
