Cyber criminals spend huge amounts of time and money developing sophisticated forms of advanced malware that are designed to bypass a company’s security defences. Relying on a single layer of security against this evolving barrage is not best practice. Ransomware malware can be spread through malicious email attachments, infected software apps, infected external storage devices and compromised websites. Attacks have also used remote desktop protocol and other approaches that do not rely on any form of user interaction.
