About this talk
Adlumin’s Security Operations Center (SOC) is on the frontlines of cybersecurity, defending our customers against thousands of attacks daily. In August 2024, our SOC team encountered “Fog,” a new variant of the STOP/DJVU ransomware family, which infiltrated a compromised VPN at a financial institution—the first attack of its kind in the sector. Thanks to Adlumin’s technology, the threat was swiftly contained, and the attackers were locked out before any damage could be done.
Join Adlumin’s expert Mark Sangster, DPO and Chief of Strategy, as he walks you through some of our SOC’s most significant threat interceptions, including the Fog ransomware attack and how Adlumin’s Security Operations Center as a Service (SOCaaS) solution thwarted these attacks in their early stages.
Key Takeaways:
- An overview of the most notable threat actors Adlumin’s SOC team encountered
- A step-by-step breakdown of the Fog data breach attempt and how Adlumin’s Ransomware Prevention stopped the attack
