Ransomware simulation
Is your organization protected against ransomware?
The average cost to recover from a ransomware attack is $1.8 million. Calian brings decades of expertise and a team of seasoned digital forensics incident response (DFIR) professionals equipped with a deep understanding of attacker tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs).
Equip your organization and protect it from potential ransomware attacks
On average, ransomware attacks happen every 11 seconds. Our sole mission is to fortify your security, proactively sealing vulnerabilities to prevent attacks from compromising your organization.
How is it done?
Our specialists use a non-intrusive ransom simulation toolkit on select assets, working alongside your IT Team to assess and analyze your defence response.
Key features:
- Controllability: Calian’s ransomware simulation is safe and non-disruptive, ensuring no impact on your network or computers.
- No downtime: Targets only specific exercise folders on local drives and network shares, avoiding widespread encryption.
- Technology-centred: the IT team monitors each test step remotely, ensuring complete visibility and control.
- 24/7 monitored: Comprehensive testing of all cyber defense systems with continuous monitoring for rapid response to ransomware threats

Understanding the layers of the web
Surface web
The surface web consists of all the publicly accessible websites indexed by traditional search engines, easily accessible and visible to the general internet user.
Deep web
The deep web includes web pages not indexed by standard search engines, often requiring specific credentials for access, such as private databases, academic journals, and members-only websites.
Dark web
The dark web is a small, hidden section of the deep web, intentionally concealed and inaccessible through standard browsers, often associated with anonymous activities and requiring special software like Tor for access.
Understanding different types of threats
- The risk of sensitive data leaks due to partner companies’ misconfigurations.
- Code containing private data like passwords and tokens, often found in open-source repositories.
- Internal documents, such as reports and invoices, at risk for unauthorized access through web security vulnerabilities.
- The use of a company’s brand by threat actors to spread malware or for illicit activities on the Dark Web.
- Impersonation or misuse of company profiles on social media for malicious activities.
- Compromised user credentials requiring immediate action for removal and protection of your environment.
- Company-owned items, like apps, illicitly copied or used for malicious purposes.
- Internet-connected devices or software vulnerabilities that could be exploited by threat actors.
