Progent's ransomware forensics experts can capture the system state after a ransomware assault and perform a detailed forensics analysis without impeding activity related to business resumption and data recovery.

Ransomware forensics investigation involves discovering and documenting the ransomware assault's progress across the network from beginning to end. This audit trail of the way a ransomware attack travelled through the network assists you to evaluate the impact and highlights vulnerabilities in security policies or processes that should be rectified to avoid future break-ins. Forensic analysis is typically assigned a top priority by the insurance provider and is often mandated by government and industry regulations. Because forensics can be time consuming, it is essential that other important recovery processes such as operational continuity are pursued concurrently. Progent maintains a large roster of information technology and cybersecurity experts with the knowledge and experience needed to carry out activities for containment, operational resumption, and data recovery without interfering with forensics.

Ransomware forensics is arduous and calls for intimate interaction with the groups responsible for data recovery and, if necessary, settlement talks with the ransomware threat actor. forensics can involve the review of all logs, registry, Group Policy Object (GPO), Active Directory (AD), DNS, routers, firewalls, scheduled tasks, and core Windows systems to check for changes.

Services involved with forensics investigation include:

• Disconnect without shutting off all potentially affected devices from the system. This may require closing all Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) ports and Internet facing network-attached storage, changing admin credentials and user PWs, and implementing two-factor authentication to guard your backups.
• Copy forensically valid images of all suspect devices so your data recovery group can get started
• Preserve firewall, virtual private network, and additional key logs as quickly as possible
• Establish the kind of ransomware used in the attack
• Inspect each machine and data store on the network including cloud storage for signs of encryption
• Catalog all encrypted devices
• Determine the type of ransomware used in the attack
• Study log activity and sessions to determine the timeline of the ransomware attack and to spot any potential lateral migration from the first infected machine
• Understand the security gaps used to carry out the ransomware assault
• Search for the creation of executables associated with the original encrypted files or system compromise
• Parse Outlook web archives
• Examine attachments
• Extract any URLs embedded in messages and determine whether they are malicious
• Provide extensive incident documentation to meet your insurance carrier and compliance regulations
• Document recommendations to close security gaps and improve processes that reduce the risk of a future ransomware exploit
