Internally we do use the same password for the same user across multiple
servers. Doing otherwise makes using shares beyond the ken of the average
user.

Ransomware is going to be executed on a windows platform most likely. As
such you should have strong domain level controls throughout your entire
organization including, but not limited to:
1. AV on all client machines and servers
2. No VPN connections from non-company control machines (users should not
be able to VPN from their home malware infested PC's)
3. You should deploy AppLocker organization wide, which only allows
whitelisted .exe's to be executed. This single security measure make's it
almost unnecessary to run AV (but you should still run it).
4. No user should be local admins of their PC
5. You should have very many domain admin accounts
6. Install dual factor auth on all your servers (and PC's ideally), such
as Duo authentication
You do all those things, your attack vectors for ransomware are greatly
diminished. #2 - #4 are the single most important things you could do.

Hello all,
I'd like to know what strategy folks are using for
ransomware on Power. I think IBM has a product available if you are
IBM storage. Any other alternatives people are using?|
Thanks, Larry
