Using Identity Controls to Prevent Crippling Ransomware in Government

LIVE Webinar, Featuring KeyData's Chief Technology Officer

The Sophos State of Ransomware in Government 2021 report revealed that the average bill for rectifying a ransomware attack, considering downtime, people time, device cost, network cost, lost opportunity, ransom paid, and more, was US$1.37 million, globally.

And with the increase in the severity and frequency of ransomware attacks on government entities, you will hear from and engage with KeyData's CTO, Brian Read, during a 30-minute live webinar where he will share the importance of having identity controls in place for an effective Privileged Access Management (PAM) program.

• Regulatory fines
