In a joint quest against cybercrime, Europol, the Dutch National Hi-Tech Crime Unit, and selected IT security companies have joined forces to disrupt cybercriminal businesses with ransomware connections. The global initiative No More Ransom helps ransomware victims retrieve encrypted data without paying the criminals.
For every ransom paid, cybercriminal groups grow stronger. At Truesec, we have a strong track record of helping hundreds of clients recover from ransomware attacks – without having to pay a ransom. By being an active contributor to No More Ransom, we can help more victims with our technical expertise and help them minimize the damage from cyber attacks, says Markus Lassfolk Vice President of Truesec Incident Response.
