Emergency Response Plan for Email Ransomware Attacks

Ransomware distributed via email remains a top threat for businesses. When an employee interacts with a malicious attachment, the potential for data encryption is immediate. The IT department must act swiftly to isolate infected endpoints from the main network to prevent lateral movement.

Critical Response Steps

• Isolate infected workstations from the corporate network immediately.
• Verify the integrity of off-site backups.
• Assess the extent of compromised databases and email archives.
• Engage security professionals to identify entry vectors.
