Did you know that ransomware attackers are shifting their focus from endpoints to Internet-facing server and device vulnerabilities? These attacks are far easier to launch and are leading to low dwell times. The need for proactive prevention and not after-the-fact detection and response has never been more critical; however, the usage of dual-use and living off the land tools makes identification of these attacks more difficult. The strategic solution to thwarting this attack vector is fine-grained access controls enforcement at the kernel level.
Symantec PAM provides server control agents that enable organizations to centrally administer all aspects of host server security. They can enforce policy controls that govern access to all protected resources, network connections, and processes. During this session, the team will highlight the specific features and capabilities that these agents deliver that help to prevent and mitigate ransomware attacks against your servers and devices.
