Ransomware attacks continue to grow in number and sophistication, putting data resilience in the boardroom. S3 is one of the largest storage systems in the world — and a fast-growing threat vector for lateral malware and ransomware spread.
S3 is one of the largest storage systems in the world, and it continues to grow. That growth makes it more attractive to threat actors — and S3 has become a key risk for lateral malware and ransomware spread in the case of an attack.
In this session, AWS and Elastio cover what ransomware and malware detection for S3 looks like in practice, where most teams have blind spots, and how detection at the storage layer compresses the blast radius of an incident.
AWS architects, cloud security teams, and data protection leads responsible for S3-heavy workloads.
