Ransomware on the Move

An Evening Dinner in Association with Akamai

Wednesday 18th October 2023

Akamai observes ransomware attackers are rampantly abusing zero and one-day vulnerabilities, leading to 2.4x growth in victims. Join us in this exquisite dinner and hear from Richard Meeus, Director of Security Technology and Strategy, information about the data findings from the recently published SOTI report, such as:

• LockBit dominates the ransomware scene, accounting for 39% of victim organisations

• Victims of multiple ransomware groups are almost 6x more likely to experience a subsequent attack within the first three months of the initial attack

• Ransomware groups increasingly target the exfiltration of files and more
