In this special edition of Koffee Talk, Ryan Kovar discusses the whitepaper titled, “An Empirically Comparative Analysis of Ransomware Binaries” authored by SURGe member Shannon Davis. The research reveals that the average ransomware encryption speed is likely beyond the capabilities of most blue teams to detect and mitigate. Shannon will also explain what this means for network defense. Join Ryan and Shannon for this in-depth discussion with snark, deadpan humor, and a look at SURGe’s next phase of ransomware research.
