### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Solid information mired in an overly repetitive tangle
  

*by P***H on Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2017*

I'll start with the positive: There is a lot of sound advice in this book and some excellent references to tools and information that will help an organization thwart ransomware.  I have been helping prevent or mitigate ransomware attacks for years and there were a number of defensive ideas in the book that I had either not considered or previously dismissed as ineffective.  Great food for thought!Now the problem: Almost every chapter feels more like a remix than part of a logical arc.  Descriptions of how certain systems work are cut short with nearly identical mentions of the basics of ransomware defense.  Restructuring the book to reduce repetition would have allowed much deeper dives into the threats and defenses.The other big weakness is an inconsistent presentation of defenses.  Instead of diving a bit deeper into one of the many DNS firewall options, the surface just scratched over and over.  Carbon Black and other powerful next gen endpoint tools are mentioned again and  again but never with more than a screenshot of depth.  Defensive Group Policies are hinted at but not spelled out.  Then there are a few examples  of too much detail. IDS is often presented with Snort rules, which is fine but probably pointless detail for most readers since signatures change constantly.Lots of potential in this one.  A second edition with heavy editing and a deeper dive into the details of how to implement some of these defenses, plus some stories from the battlefield, would turn this from a three to a  five.

    Good - But Needs Some More Editing to be Great
  

*by C***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2016*

This book provides a good overview of a number of ransomware families (CryptXXX, Locky, Cerber, Ransom32, KeRanger) and a good description of the anatomy of a ransomware attack (load, key exchange, windows registry, volume shadow copy, encrypt, ransom). That said, it seems that O'Reilly rushed the publication of the book when it really needed some more time with an editor.- The description of the key exchange process is unclear; the authors, at least once, refer to "private key(s)" when they mean "public keys"- Diagrams are referred to according to their colors (relevant in kindle) when the print book is black and white- Sometimes the author includes details that don't make sense unless you read further but which should be explained when they are introduced- Not all acronyms are explained and, at least once, the authors tell you what an acronym means after they have been using it for 5+ pages without explanationWould be 4-5 star with some additional help from an editor.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Good info
  

*by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2020*

The book is very informative into the world of ransomware. Gives you a few hints into which are professional ransomware and which are wannabes. How to go about preventing getting ransomware in first place and how to stop ransomware from encrypting files.
