Bridgeport Schools computer network hit by ransomware attack.

How can ManageEngine help with such situations?

ManageEngine provides solutions that can help deal with ransomware attacks and prevent email phishing attacks from happening in the first place.

Exchange Reporter Plus offers a host of reports that help you locate suspicious emails, both sent and received, based on keywords in their subject or body. Often the content and the sender of the email come across as valid, tricking users into clicking malicious emails and causing serious damage to businesses. This is why email attachments deserve critical attention. With Exchange Reporter Plus, it's easy to set up filters to look out for malicious attachments—whether they're TXT, PPT, or BAT files.

You can locate emails based on:

• Attachment name: Display all messages in your organization that have an attachment with a specific name. Knowing the names of malicious files helps you take necessary steps to stop email-bound threats.
• Attachment type: Identify mailbox content based on an attachment’s file format to spot malicious software transfer over email.

In attacks where the content and sender information vary, you can customize mailbox content reports to include all the keywords these different emails use. Get started now with your free, 30-day trial of Exchange Reporter Plus.

DataSecurity Plus is an automated ransomware threat identification and mitigation solution that:
