## Building resilience against evolving ransomware threats
Ransomware remains one of the most widespread and destructive cyber threats in 2025/26. Attackers are increasingly targeting supply chains, critical infrastructure, and cloud environments, while employing double and triple extortion tactics to maximize their impact.
The costs associated with downtime, data loss, and reputational damage are higher than ever. Many organizations still lack clear strategies for prevention, response, and recovery.
This session provides technology and business leaders with the knowledge needed to bolster their ransomware defenses and develop effective incident response playbooks.
