Deploy Advanced EPS Solution
Enterprises should ensure that deployed End Point Security Solution in their infrastructure is enabled with Ransomware protection. They must further update anti-malware of all the end points regularly and should schedule back of their end point’s crucial data on hourly/daily basis, depending on the need of business operations.

Calibrate Perimeter Security
Corroborate that anti-virus & IPS signatures of Gateway Security appliance i.e. NextGen Firewall are well updated and all the other rules/policies are tightly configured to prevent intrusion. In case if cloud sandboxing is not enabled then it should be done at the priority.

Use Secure Remote Access
They must only allow Remote access via VPN to establish secure connections between their networks and the devices used by offsite employees. In addition, Mac binding and two factor authentication must be enabled to ensure that only protected office laptops/mobiles are been used by employees for connecting to internal office resources.

Review Cloud Security
Alike, next generation firewalls, rules/policies of virtual firewalls and CASB also need to be reviewed up. Mac binding and two factor authentication should be enabled on Virtual Firewalls too.

Educate Employees

Making the employees aware of security threats is very significant. They can serve as the first line of defense to combat online threats and can aggressively help stop malware from infiltrating the organization's system. An advisory mail can be sent to employees stating ‘Do’s and Don’ts to create more cyber awareness. They could also initiate a webinar to demonstrate the same live.
