Combating ransomware 3.0 in 2026
Wednesday, 11th February at 11:00 GMT | 12:00 CET | 13:00 SAST
Speakers
- Richard Ford, CTO, Integrity360
- Zineddine Kherouatou, Sr. Solutions Engineer META, SentinelOne
Ransomware has entered its third phase. In 2026, attacks are faster, stealthier, and far more disruptive, driven by identity compromise, living-off-the-land techniques, cross-domain lateral movement, and data extortion models that go well beyond encryption alone. Today’s ransomware operators combine initial access techniques like phishing, credential abuse and session hijacking with highly automated post-exploitation playbooks, allowing them to evade traditional controls and accelerate impact. Understanding how these modern campaigns unfold is now critical for organisations looking to reduce dwell time and stop attacks before damage is done.
In this webinar, Richard Ford (CTO Integrity360) is joined by Zineddine Kherouatou (Sr. Solutions Engineer META, SentinelOne) for a deep dive into Ransomware 3.0, using real incident scenarios and MITRE ATT&CK–style walkthroughs to map attacker behaviour from initial access to impact. The session will explore the latest ransomware attack vectors observed in the wild, common detection blind spots, and how modern, autonomous protection approaches disrupt attacks earlier in the kill chain. Designed for security leaders and practitioners alike, this webinar delivers practical insight into what’s changed, what still works, and how organisations can better prepare for the next generation of ransomware attacks.
