What are the threats from ransomware?

Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions help defend against ransomware attacks by ensuring that only authorized users have access to critical systems and data. By implementing PAM solutions, organizations can enforce least privilege access, strong authentication, session monitoring, and privileged user behavior analytics to minimize the risk of ransomware spreading through privileged accounts. Additionally, PAM solutions can help prevent cybercriminals from gaining unauthorized access and moving laterally within the network to identify and encrypt sensitive data. This increased security posture reduces the likelihood of ransomware attacks being successful and limits the damage they can cause.
