Demystifying Ransomware and Defending Against Future Attacks

Ransomware is an ever-evolving form of malware designed to encrypt files on a device. Malicious actors then demand payment in exchange for decryption. As attacks continue to rise, the government is creating a counter-ransomware strategy. What impact will these policies have on the relationship between the public and private sectors? The expert panelists from academia and research will discuss. 

  • Developments taking place in ransomware policy  
  • Emerging threats in cybersecurity 
  • Tools to protect your company from attacks 
  • Individual roles in preventing attacks 

Ransomware and emerging cybersecurity threats are a particularly serious challenge for the security of all sectors and industries. Don’t miss your chance to hear directly from the experts of Georgia Tech and Georgia Tech Research Institute.
