Use the Ransomware Analytics report to measure how close an organization may be to a ransomware attack.
The report helps you understand an organization's susceptibility to an attack by displaying and correlating several key pieces of information:
- A score reflecting the organization's overall likelihood of attack, based on issue types flagged on its Scorecard that were present in other organizations that have had ransomware events
Note: The report's ransomware score is not related to the Scorecard rating and does not directly affect it. However, issue types that affect the ransomware score may also impact the Scorecard score.
- A chart showing the issue types that reduce the ransomware score most significantly, each with a number reflecting how much it negatively impacts the score. Remediating each of those issue types reduces the likelihood of a ransomware event and triggers a recalculation of the score.
Note: Remediating all the findings of an issue type in the report does not raise the score by the value of the issue's negative impact. It raises the score slightly based on relevant issue types still on the Scorecard and other conditions.
- Explanations for how the presence each of those issue types can lead to ransomware events and recommendations for remediation.
