Time to Ransom is Money
A recent analysis found that ransomware attackers typically demand payment within approximately 17 hours of initiating an attack. This metric reveals the speed at which threat actors move from initial compromise to extortion demands in their campaigns.
Why it matters: Security and incident response teams need to understand that the window for detection and containment of ransomware is measured in hours, not days, making rapid threat hunting and backup verification critical during the earliest stages of compromise.
