S8|E34 Ransomware and Cisco Zero-Trust Networking

Cisco Champion Radio

Nearly every day we can read about “ransomware” holding another organization’s data hostage, shutting their operations down, or disrupting their supply chain. Commercial enterprises, major utilities, large healthcare providers, processing facilities—even small businesses aren’t safe from being the target of these attacks.
