Ransomware Attack:Rescue-checklist Cyber Security Awareness Program

         

摘要

Ransomware attacks have been spreading broadly in the last few years,where attackers deny users’access to their systems and encrypt their files until they pay a ransom,usually in Bitcoin.Of course,that is the worst thing that can happen;especially for organizations having sensitive information.In this paper we proposed a cyber security awareness program intended to provide end-users with a rescue checklist in case of being attacked with a ransomware as well as preventing the attack and ways to recover from it.The program aimed at providing cyber security knowledge to 15 employees in a Sudanese trading and investment company.According to their cyber behaviour before the program,the participants showed a low level cyber security awareness that with 72%they are likely of being attacked by a ransomware from a phishing email,which is well known for spreading ransomware attacks.The results revealed that the cyber security awareness program greatly diminished the probability of being attacked by a ransomware with an average of 28%.This study can be used as a real-life ransomware attack rescue plan.
