The Certificate of Ransomware Prevention Proficiency (CHRPP) knowledge builder course offers detailed training and best practices regarding security strategies to prevent against and address ransomware attacks in healthcare environments.

Ransomware will lock a user out of a server system, computer or data files. The tools used for this purpose are constantly evolving because they have become extremely lucrative in recent years. Like other enterprises, ransomware is now also operated as a service, which is making it an even more common occurrence. In the service model, a ransomware “client” simply delivers a purchased email list of recipients they wish to attack, sign up for the service and agree to give the hacking enterprise a cut of whatever they acquire in ransom funds.
