As ransomware attacks continue to grow, keeping sensitive data secure is crucial. Lookout prevents the initial compromise of a ransomware attack by securing data wherever and however it needs to. How Lookout Reduces Risk of a Ransomware Attack: Ensures only endpoints free from malware access data Prevents attackers from exploiting vulnerabilities in internet facing apps and servers Enables you to identity unauthorized access when.

Lookout ZTNA is a cloud-native security solution that addresses the challenges of the modern-day remote workforce by granting access only to specific applications rather than an entire network. This limits lateral movement when a threat occurs and allows for secure collaboration across teams.

With the increased use of personal unmanaged devices organizations are exposed to new risks, especially ransomware attacks. In fact, over 35% of organizations never get their data back after an attack.

Data loss prevention (DLP) involves a set of technologies and processes used to discover, monitor and control sensitive data. Why is it so important? Businesses use DLP to prevent data breaches and comply with regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and others. DLP tools allow security staff and network administrators to set business rules that determine what’s sensitive while also providing insight into the use of content within an enterprise.

Ransomware remains high on the risk register for most enterprises, yet this threat has morphed into more targeted and insidious forms with multiple dimensions and points of coercion. As mobile working and cloud adoption became the norm, your data is now distributed, hard to monitor, and your organization’s operations are at risk. Identity is the new perimeter and the first place a modern ransomware crew will go to work. In this session, security professionals and enterprise leaders will learn.

Ransomware is not a new threat, but the tactics that attackers are using to access corporate infrastructures and steal resources has evolved. With the continuation of remote work and data being stored on the cloud, attackers only need to compromise one user, app or device to gain access.

In this Lookout ZTNA demo video, you will see how to onboard an application that is within your corporate network, how to secure access to the application using identity-driven policies and how to apply data protection policies to protect sensitive data.

This demo video shows how to create policies for data protection and application security. For this example, we create policies to protect PCI information that is uploaded to a private application.
