Cybereason recently published an informative white paper on the subject, titled RansomOps inside of the Complex RansomOps as well as the Ransomware Economy in which we discussed how the world of ransomware has drastically changed over the last couple of years, moving from a small business that was targeted at nuisance attack, to complex business strategy that's highly efficient and highly specialized with an increasing level in technological advancement and advancement. The study looked into the ways that ransomware vendors are shifting away from large-scale attacks that are not requiring for ransom and instead focusing on more targeted, custom attacks aimed at specific companies that have been selected because of their capacity to pay for large-scale ransom demands.

RANSOMWARE RESPONSE to WARY CISOS
CISOs are conscious of the increasing threats to their security. This is why they tend
to think that ransomware-related attackers are likely to attack their businesses in
2022.
In the research conducted by ITPro Seven out of 10 CISOs declared that they are
likely to be impacted by ransomware attacks within the next year. This is significantly
higher than 53% of firms who experienced an attack within the last year.
The preceding year, Cybereason published a study entitled Attacks on Ransomware as
well as the Actual Cost to the Business and exposed the diverse expenses businesses
face following a ransomware attack. The most important findings that stood out were:

2. • The majority of the victims of ransomware reported that they had suffered a
significant loss of revenue in the aftermath of the attack
• Nearly half of all businesses have had to repair their brand and reputation as a
result of ransomware infections
• The third victims of ransomware have lost their C-level expertise following the
attack.
• Three out of ten firms needed to cut employees because of financial pressures
triggered from the ransomware threat
• One-quarter of victims of ransomware said they had to cease business
operations
To be prepared in case of becoming the victim of ransomware attacks, CISOs need to
know what they should do in the event that their companies are targeted. This is
because the U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) provides the
following guidelines to follow. Three of them stand out:
