In this video, Jen Ellis and Phyllis discuss the blueprint for ransomware defense and its impact on small to medium enterprises. They explore how organizations can effectively implement cybersecurity measures despite resource constraints, emphasizing the need for collective government and industry efforts to drive adoption. The discussion highlights the necessity for clear communication, consistent guidance, and capacity building to enhance cyber resilience across all sectors.
The Ransomware Task Force (RTF) aims to provide a clear and actionable framework for ransomware defense, focusing on how governments can protect organizations at scale rather than individual organizational advice.
A significant challenge in cybersecurity is driving the adoption of existing guidance; many small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) struggle with understanding and implementing cybersecurity measures.
The RTF collaborates with multiple entities to push for uniform cybersecurity guidance across different sectors and governments, emphasizing the importance of consistent messaging to prevent confusion in cybersecurity practices.
