Cynet stops ransomware before it stops you
The rising ransomware threat
Ransomware is a type of malware that threatens to publish the victim’s data and/or perpetually block access to it unless a ransom is paid. Some simple ransomware may lock the system in a way that is not difficult for a knowledgeable person to reverse. More advanced ransomware uses a technique called cryptoviral extortion, in which it encrypts the victim’s files to make them inaccessible and demands a ransom payment to decrypt them.
STOPPING RANSOMWARE IN ITS TRACKS
The Cynet XDR platform provides a layered approach to ransomware protection with extended visibility and protection across endpoints, networks and users. This uniquely allows Cynet to immediately detect ransomware at the beginning of its cycle. With the ability to automatically respond, Cynet can stop the process before files or drives are encrypted.
KEY BENEFITS

100% Proactive
Continuously hunting for critical and evasive threats in your environment.
Extended Prevention and Detection
Cynet utilizes machine learning malware detection that leverages rich data across millions of malware samples and continually improves as new malware evolves. Beyond Cynet’s protections that scan files at rest and non-executable files, Cynet additionally employs several real-time protection mechanisms specifically designed to prevent and detect ransomware, including:
Real-time Memory Protection
Detect and block memory strings which are associated with ransomware so even unknown/obfuscated ransomware is exposed upon execution.
Critical Component Filtering
Protect the OS password vault so ransomware cannot harvest credentials and spread across the network.
Automated Investigation and Remediation
Real-time File Filtering
Detect and prevent unapproved apps from writing to various file types, preventing access to important company assets.
Deception Technology
Place decoy files and hosts in various locations, especially those that ransomware typically tries to access, to detect the presence of ransomware.
Automated Investigation and Remediation
Quickly uncovering and fully remediating all components of a ransomware attack ensures that the entire scope of the attack is contained and no hidden components are left lingering in your environment. Cynet automated response capabilities ensure ransomware attacks are immediately detected, blocked and eradicated, including:
Automated Incident Engine
Automatically launches an investigation following high risk alerts to uncover the root cause and full extent of the attack and can then automatically apply all required remediation actions across the environment.
Extended Remediation
Cynet XDR provides the widest range of automated remediation actions across endpoints, networks and users.
Custom Remediation
Beyond the built-in remediation capabilities, Cynet enables you to build your own custom remediations leveraging custom scripts and commands for more complex remediation actions unique to your environment.
Automated Remediation Playbooks
Combines multiple remediation actions together in response to specific threats. Playbooks can be automatically invoked when the threat is detected or triggered manually, depending on what the organization prefers.
