Your ransomware attack is contained. Systems are isolated. The bleeding has stopped. Then someone asks the question no one planned for: now what? In Part 2 of WWT's Cyber Resilience Maturity series, WWT Presents Research moves from strategy to execution — examining what it actually takes to restore a business after a cyber event has shut everything down. Host Robb Boyd is joined by Angela Brandt, Director of Global Security Consulting at World Wide Technology, to break down why most organizations discover — too late — that backups alone are not recovery.

Attackers often have a deeper understanding of their target environments than the targets themselves, allowing them to quickly exploit weaknesses, especially with AI at their disposal. Without a clear understanding of network activities, organizations cannot secure their environments effectively. While segmenting critical assets can prevent ransomware spread, understanding risk and exposure is crucial for effective segmentation. The Illumio Zero Trust Segmentation platform supports a zero trust strategy by providing end-to-end visibility, mapping assets, identifying risks, and offering intelligence to reduce the attack surface. It allows organizations to map connectivity, reveal vulnerabilities, and build security strategies around actual risks, all from a single console. Illumio enhances cyber resilience by offering comprehensive visibility to identify and mitigate risks.
