Dark Web, with a Twist of Ransomware

This virtual presentation will be by Jim Baird, Director of Information Security, Information Security Auditor with 10-D Security.

News stories on ransomware attacks have unfortunately become commonplace.  Though ransomware has been around for a while, the attacks have evolved, and ransom demands have increased substantially.  Not only do the attacks result in locked-up data and systems, but many now include substantial theft of data to exert maximum leverage on the victims.  But where do the cyber-criminals post the stolen data?  The Dark Web is the likely place where that data (and much more) will be bought and sold.  In this session we will cover:

• Cyber-attacker methods and their targets
• Ransomware trends
• Proactive steps to avoid becoming a ransomware victim, and planning actions “just in case”
• The Dark Web
• A demo of the Dark Web to uncover where it exists, what it contains, and why it should be examined with caution
