Ransomware rarely exploits just “one CVE” – it’s often a chain of weaknesses. This use case reveals typical ransomware paths (entry → spread → impact) and shows the few measures with the greatest leverage. Goal: within 60 days, break the simplest paths.
If you’d like, we’ll walk through a typical path in a demo, together with our technology partner.
Many programmes stay at “we patch more”. But ransomware often exploits the combination of identity, privileges and configurations. Without proof, priorities remain diffuse.
We select a few realistic scenarios, reveal the path and prioritise stop points by leverage. Then we check whether the path is truly broken.
Typical timeframe: 2–4 weeks for a complete cycle.
Define 2–3 scenarios (context-specific)
Reveal attack paths
Prioritise stop points
Route fix backlog
Re-test/verification
Is this alarmism?
No – we work with realistic, context-specific scenarios and clear boundaries.
Do you have to test everything?
No – few scenarios, high leverage.
What’s a good result?
Paths broken, measures verified, clear next steps.
How often do you repeat?
Continuously – ideally daily and from different zones/networks. This way, new paths don’t go undetected for weeks.
Let’s reveal the simplest paths and effectively slow down the attacker with a few measures.
