However, bad actors are now taking advantage of Safe Mode vulnerabilities because they know that endpoint security products are unable to run. Hackers are able to infiltrate Windows systems by running a small amount of code that won’t trigger a ransomware attack in normal Windows mode and thus, avoid detection from cybersecurity software. The malicious command code automatically reboots the system in Safe Mode, and then the ransomware is able to access and encrypt all of the system’s data. As cybercriminals become stealthier and more evasive, Windows Safe Mode is becoming a growing attack vector. If endpoint cybersecurity products were to work in Safe Mode, they would effectively break the system, rendering Safe Mode unsafe. If security products were allowed to run in Safe Mode, you break the intentions for which Safe Mode was intended, but if you deny security products from running, then you open the security hole and allow attackers to infiltrate the system.

Yuen Pin Yeap the CEO and co-founder of NeuShield said, “Ransomware, in particular, is having a profound impact on the cyber insurance market…” As threat actors continue to develop increasingly complex attacks, the number of organizations struggling with ransomware has skyrocketed. We will see more insurance carriers looking closely at their cyber insurance policies, with many providers dropping out of the market in the coming year. However, the need will be greater than ever as companies will continue to fall victim to ransomware attacks. We would expect policy rates to increase exponentially in the coming year.
