In the wake of a more digitally connected world, and with the rise in internet connected devices and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and where mobile and cloud first is the new norm, enterprises are seen grappling with security mechanisms to address their vulnerabilities, that lie exposed to the cybercriminals. As per Gartner reports, by 2020 there will be more than 25 billion connected devices, a hotbed of opportunity for cyber attackers.
Today, IoT devices have become the preferred choice for cyber attackers looking to disrupt and paralyze the system, and IoT Ransomware threat is more serious than ever.
