Watch a LIVE attack demo and learn how to prevent, detect, respond to and recover from AI-powered ransomware attacks

Ransomware used to be straightforward: Breach a business with a phishing email, encrypt data and force a payout.

Today, encryption is just step one in a relentless attack sequence. And while phishing remains the dominant attack vector for ransomware, AI is catching up and introducing new threats and attack vectors.

In this webinar, Acronis experts will explore how new AI tactics, including injecting employees’ AI assistants with malicious prompts, help hackers gain footholds, move laterally across environments, exfiltrate data and extort businesses.

You’ll learn how to defend your business and clients from ransomware with a cyber protection strategy that combines prevention, detection, response and recovery into a single, integrated approach.

Register now to see:

  • How AI is transforming ransomware attacks, and why the old ransomware playbook is no longer effective.
  • How AI assistants have opened a new attack vector for insider threats.
  • New strategies for closing security gaps with a unified approach to prevention, detection, response and recovery.
