In this episode of Secured with Dr. KJ, James Ringold breaks down the constantly evolving ransomware threat landscape and its implications for enterprise security. From the rise of AI-powered attacks to the growth of ransomware as a service, James explains why these threats demand more than just technical fixes—they require a strategic, cross-functional approach.


We also explore the growing importance of security education, the burden of legacy systems, and how organizations can better balance proactive prevention with rapid recovery strategies.
