Keep patches up to date.
Ensure operating system environments
—desktops, servers, and devices—are
patched, and that security solutions are
running with the latest patches and
intelligence.
Disable unnecessary services.
Evaluate the services running on each
machine and disable any that are not
needed.
Segment networks.
Architect the environment to include
network segmentation and a
least-privilege mode to limit the ability for
ransomware to traverse the network.
Train employees.
All members of the organization should
be trained on how to identify phishing
attempts, and how to report and protect
the organization if they think they have
become infected.
Use backups.
Implement a backup plan with offline backups,
and verify the solution to ensure the backups
will be available in the event that they are
needed to keep the organization running.
Use malware protection.
All malware protection is not equal, and often
you get what you pay for. Use business class
malware protection.
