Progent's Ransomware Forensics Investigation and Reporting in Vacaville
Progent's ransomware forensics experts can capture the evidence of a ransomware attack and perform a detailed forensics investigation without disrupting the processes related to operational resumption and data recovery. Your Vacaville organization can utilize Progent's post-attack forensics documentation to combat subsequent ransomware attacks, assist in the cleanup of encrypted data, and comply with insurance carrier and regulatory requirements.

Ransomware forensics analysis involves discovering and describing the ransomware attack's progress throughout the targeted network from start to finish. This history of the way a ransomware assault progressed through the network assists your IT staff to evaluate the damage and highlights shortcomings in policies or work habits that need to be corrected to avoid future breaches. Forensics is typically assigned a top priority by the insurance provider and is typically mandated by state and industry regulations. Because forensic analysis can take time, it is essential that other key activities like operational continuity are pursued concurrently. Progent has an extensive team of information technology and data security professionals with the skills needed to carry out the work of containment, operational resumption, and data restoration without disrupting forensics.

Ransomware forensics is complex and calls for close cooperation with the groups responsible for file recovery and, if necessary, settlement talks with the ransomware attacker. Ransomware forensics can involve the review of all logs, registry, Group Policy Object, AD, DNS servers, routers, firewalls, schedulers, and basic Windows systems to check for variations.

Services involved with forensics investigation include:

• Isolate without shutting down all possibly suspect devices from the system. This may require closing all RDP ports and Internet connected network-attached storage, modifying admin credentials and user passwords, and implementing two-factor authentication to guard backups.
• Capture forensically valid digital images of all exposed devices so the data restoration group can proceed
• Save firewall, VPN, and additional key logs as quickly as feasible
• Determine the variety of ransomware involved in the attack
• Examine each machine and storage device on the system as well as cloud-hosted storage for signs of encryption
• Catalog all encrypted devices
• Establish the kind of ransomware involved in the attack
• Review log activity and user sessions in order to establish the time frame of the attack and to identify any potential sideways migration from the first infected system
• Identify the attack vectors exploited to perpetrate the ransomware attack
• Search for the creation of executables associated with the original encrypted files or network breach
• Parse Outlook PST files
• Analyze email attachments
• Separate any URLs from email messages and check to see if they are malware
• Produce comprehensive incident reporting to satisfy your insurance and compliance requirements
• Suggest recommendations to shore up security gaps and enforce workflows that reduce the exposure to a future ransomware exploit
