Closing the Gap: Understanding the True State of Ransomware Readiness

Today's ransomware is faster, smarter, and more industrialized than ever before. Despite this escalating threat, most organizations are dangerously overconfident in their security.

This webinar reviews key findings from the CrowdStrike State of Ransomware Survey, a survey of 1,100 global security leaders that reveals a critical gap between perceived readiness and reality and outlines a path to true defense.

Key Takeaways from the Survey:

  • The Speed Problem: As adversaries automate intrusions, 76% of security leaders say it's getting harder to be fully prepared, and nearly half fear that they can't detect or respond as fast as AI-driven attacks can execute.
  • The Reality Check: A staggering 78% of respondents reported experiencing a ransomware attack in the past year, and only 22% of victims who felt “well-prepared” beforehand recovered within 24 hours.
  • The Cost of Payment: Paying the ransom offers no safety: 83% of paying victims were attacked again, and 93% had their data stolen anyway.

Join CrowdStrike to delve deeper into the survey findings and discuss solutions for closing this confidence gap and protecting your business from modern ransomware.
