Ransomware protection for businesses of all sizes in Yorkshire
Ransomware is one of the most disruptive (and potentially costly) cybersecurity threats facing businesses that utilise technology day-to-day. These attacks attempt to encrypt critical systems and data, preventing access until a ransom is paid.
While the threat is serious, the risk can be significantly reduced with the right security controls in place. Since 2013, Flyford have been helping Yorkshire businesses keep their systems secure by implementing layered ransomware protection designed to prevent attacks, eliminate and ensure systems remain secure and recoverable.

Our solutions
Our multi-layer ransomware protection, explained:
Endpoint: email protection, antivirus and Data loss protection
Your first line of defence against ransomware; we keep users protected through:
Email Protection: our systems use URL filtering to prevent emails with malicious links to ransomware and phishing attempts getting through to your team, protecting your initial entry points. We monitor these emails to reduce the number of attacks and ensure repeat attempts cannot be carried out.
Antivirus: We install antivirus on your devices to identify, block and remove any malicious files and code found – it is important to note, a lot of modern ransomware evades anti-virus protection. Still a good tool to have, it’s the reason we use a multilayered approach rather than relying on a single tool.
Data Loss Protection: Our real-time monitoring tools detect anomalies in data transfers, preventing your sensitive data from being moved without authorisation.
System protection: zero trust, network security and encryption, 24/7 monitoring
Our system protection prevents ransomware from entering your network. We do this through:
Zero Trust: “zero trust, always verify”, protection that assumes all network traffic is malicious, unless it can prove otherwise. This means continuous verification, select permissions for applications, and isolation of devices to ensure ransomware cannot spread.
Network security and encryption: We configure your network through VPNs/ IP VPNs, combined with Ransomware encryption protection software that detects and eliminates even the most sophisticated ransomware.
24/7 monitoring: We monitor your systems 24/7 – if your systems are under threat, we can intervene at the point of attack.
Backup and Disaster Recovery
In the unlikely event that ransomware breaks through all lines of defence, we provide backup and disaster recovery solutions both onsite and offsite. This gives you complete, uninfected copies of your core systems and sensitive data that can update close to real time. We can then restore an uncompromised version, avoiding downtime, and paying criminals.

FAQs
What is Ransomware?
Ransomware is a type of cyberattack where malicious software encrypts business data and systems, demanding payment to restore them and relinquish control. Widely considered one of the biggest cybersecurity threats of the decade, ransomware can prove costly if security measures are not effectively put in place – these attacks can disrupt operations, cause data loss and lead to significant financial damage for businesses through downtime, legal repercussions, or loss of faith from customers.
