Apply Best Practices

Follow these top tips to minimize your risk of attack:

  • Use multi-factor authentication (MFA)
  • Use complex passwords
  • Limit access rights; give user accounts and administrators only the access rights they need and nothing more
  • Make regular backups, and keep them offsite and offline where attackers can’t find
  • Patch early and patch often. Ransomware like WannaCry and NotPetya relied on unpatched vulnerabilities to spread around the globe
  • Lock down your RDP. Turn off RDP if you don’t need it, and use rate limiting, 2FA, or a VPN if you do
  • Ensure tamper protection is enabled – Ryuk and other ransomware strains attempt to disable your endpoint protection
