Your Cloud Doesn't Protect You from Ransomware
Cloud storage does not inherently protect data from ransomware attacks. Attackers typically compromise endpoints or hijack user sessions, allowing malware to propagate through cloud synchronization services and encrypt files stored there.
Why it matters: Organizations relying on cloud services for ransomware protection may face unexpected data loss if endpoint security or access controls are weak; practitioners should verify that cloud deployments include endpoint hardening, session security, and immutable backups.
