EDR: The single best protection against ransomware
This document highlights the escalating threat of ransomware attacks on businesses and emphasizes the importance of advanced Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) as the most effective defense mechanism. Ransomware, a form of malware, encrypts files to disrupt business operations and extort payment. EDR offers proactive protection against such attacks, with features like AI-driven detection, automated remediation, and 24/7 monitoring. Case studies demonstrate EDR's effectiveness, including thwarting high-profile attacks like SolarWinds and ProxyLogon. Key features of advanced EDR solutions are outlined, and Masergy, a provider of software-defined networking and cloud solutions, is introduced as a trusted partner in combating cyber threats.
