Preventing Ransomware attacks on IBM i

Log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

Back in 2017 the Wanna Cry ransomware attack affected thousands of companies around the globe. In the meantime several new ransomware attack versions have been introduced and ransomware attacks are even offered as a service called Ransomware as a Service (RaaS).
Even though there are currently no known ransomware viruses that are running natively
on IBM i, many IBM i systems have been affected by ransomware via external access resulting in system outages up to two weeks and thousands of encrypted objects.
This session gives an introduction to ransomware and what you can configure in IBM i
to lower the risk of successful ransomware attacks. Just remember, being hit by a ransomware attack is not a matter of "if", it is a matter of "when" it is going to happen.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn what Ransomware attacks are and how they work
- Know the entrypoints into your system for Ransomware attacks
- Get to know configuration best practices to lower the risk for Ransomware attacks
