Ransomware Resilience
Understand the Threat. Assess the Risks. Take Action.
“The best way to deal with a ransomware attack is to practice having one, to do tabletop exercises. You bring in outside consultants, a third party that runs you through an exercise where you practice having an incident and everybody knows what their role is and how they would respond. That can help you find weaknesses, maybe in the way your backup processes are built or in your response plan.“
Lisa Plaggemier, Executive Director, National Cybersecurity Alliance
At Gate 15, we help organizations stay ahead of ransomeware, not scramble after it.
Our team builds actionable response plans, runs real-world scenario exercises, delivers targeted training, and tailors threat awareness programs to your unique risks. With threat-informed, risk-based expertise, we strengthen your defenses, sharpen your response, and guide you through post-incident analysis when needed.
Ransomware is not slowing down. It is evolving, and it is expensive. From data theft and extortion to complete operational shutdowns, the damage hits fast and hard. Gate 15 helps you be ready before it happens.
Find the best option for your organization to get ahead of the threat.
Budget-Friendly, Executive Ransomware Workshop for Small, Medium, and Non-Profit Teams
Especially designed for organizations working on tight budgets, in this workshop Gate 15 will lead your executive team through a deliberate discussion to educate them on the threat and explore fundamental questions to support an effective ransomware response. This “101” workshop is intended to help inform the development of plans and procedures.
Budget-Friendly Executive Ransomware Resilience Tabletop Exercise (TTX)
In this scenario-based exercise, Gate 15 will lead your team through a ransomware incident to review and refine your existing plans and procedures. Using a pre-developed threat-informed and risk-based scenario, our team will lead your organization through critical response actions and decisions. This approach minimizes client planning requirements and costs.
Customized Exercises
We will support the design and conduct of all necessary activities for a successful customized ransomware exercise, from workshops to TTXs, drills, or more complex exercises. We apply the best practices of the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) and enhance with our exceptional experience, processes, and threat-informed, risk-based approach to resilience, to help teams prepare for effective ransomware response and recovery.
Post-Incident Analysis
Unfortunately, incidents happen, even to the most prepared organizations. What is critical is to learn from them and use those experiences to further bolster preparedness and resilience. Gate 15 is available to support post-incident analysis (After-Action Reviews or Post-Mortems) to help document the response and to identify both areas of success and opportunities for organizational improvement. Crisis happens, but never let a good incident go to waste!
“Doing the work upfront to prepare for a disruption, anticipating that it will happen, and exercising not just for the response but with a deliberate focus on continuity and recovery, improving the ability to operate in a degraded state and significantly reducing downtime when an incident occurs.”
Former Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Director Jen Easterly, “The Power of Resilience”
