Top 10 Reasons Malware ≠ Ransomware
Stop Confusing Them
Many IT teams often lump ransomware into the “malware” bucket. That mistake is costly.
Malware makes you sick. Ransomware is terminal.
Only Elastio detects ransomware. We go beyond signatures and alerts to spot encryption at scale, integrity drift, and backup sabotage. While immutability may fix this, pinpointing your last clean recovery point with proof is critical – and only Elastio detects ransomware encryption reliably. Alerts don’t save you. Controlling your recovery does. With Elastio, you don’t just detect problems. You control your recovery.
