"The UK's National Crime Agency recently highlighted how the ransomware landscape has entered a post-trust ecosystem. This refers to a more unpredictable and dangerous threat landscape, and an environment that's interconnected. Nothing appears off limits for cyber criminals. They are willing to push the boundaries of innovation, experimentation and collaboration to stay ahead of law enforcement agencies and to remaster ransomware attacks that force victims into coercion."
"Bruce Lee based Jeet Kune Do on a philosophy which advocates practices of absorbing what is useful, discarding what is not, engaging in directness and simplicity to effectively and quickly end confrontation, and perhaps most importantly, the martial art's core tenet of 'the way of the intercepting fist'. It's a style of martial arts crafted to neutralise an attack through a simultaneous defensive and offensive move. So, how does this apply to ransomware mitigation?"
Ransomware has entered a post-trust ecosystem, producing a more unpredictable, interconnected, and dangerous threat landscape. Cyber criminals push innovation, experimentation, and collaboration to stay ahead of law enforcement and coerce victims. Strategic alliances between groups such as DragonForce, LockBit and Qilin enable sharing of techniques, resources and infrastructure, strengthening ransomware capabilities. Jeet Kune Do principles—absorbing what is useful, discarding what is not, and employing directness, simplicity and intercepting defensive-offensive moves—offer a framework for mitigation. Organisations have invested in robust defences, yet attackers establish entry through multiple vectors, requiring constant alertness, adaptation and informed responses.
