Why do cities appear to be a low hanging fruit when it comes to ransomware attacks? What hurdles do state and local governments face when securing their systems and responding to attacks?
In the first of a two part series, Threatpost talks to Shawn Taylor, the senior systems engineer at Forescout who covers state and local governments across the country. Taylor was in the trenches during the infamous 2018 Atlanta ransomware attack and recounts what the experience taught him about remediation and recovery efforts when it comes to cyberattacks.
