RansomSnare 2.0

Keep your files.
Keep work moving.

A critical layer of defense where ransomware strikes: your files. RansomSnare stops zero-day ransomware as it tries to encrypt, with no signatures and no downtime.

Test your endpoint security with SimWare

Not ready for a demo? SimWare creates 20 test documents in a new folder, runs 10 ransomware-style encryption scenarios against copies of them, and shows which ones your current security blocks.

  • Only touches its own files. Everything happens in a fresh test folder it creates.
  • No install, no account. One 380 KB app for Windows 10/11 and Server 2016+.
  • Signed by SecuritySnares. Check the publisher when Windows asks.
  • Keep the results. Email yourself the report from inside the app.

Some security tools will flag or stop SimWare. That is the point: it shows whether they react to encryption. Run it on a test machine if your policy requires.

The problem

Hackers can lock, steal or destroy the files your team needs. Orders stall. Staff lose access to their work. Recovery costs grow while the clock runs, and the damage reaches far beyond the IT team.

The solution

RansomSnare watches how files are used. When a harmful task tries to lock them, it stops the task and alerts your team. It adds file protection to the security tools you already use.

The value

No disruption, and nothing to recover. RansomSnare stops the attack and rolls back the files it touched, so your team keeps working.

Protection for the files people need to serve customers and run operations.

SecuritySnares' preventative approach has been a game changer for us. Having the ability to stop a ransomware attack before it can execute is unlike anything we've seen before.

See the difference

Same attack.
Two very different endings.

Launch the same ransomware against two folders. One ends with every file locked and a ransom demand. The other ends with the attack stopped and nothing to recover.

Try it: same attack, two folders

Unprotected

0 of 40 files locked

With RansomSnare

0 of 40 files locked

Illustrative simulation. Press launch to watch both folders.

Built to limit damage

More protection.
Nothing to recover.

Spots file locking without needing a list of known threats.

  1. 01

    Protect shared work

    Protects the shared folders where teams read and save files, controlling file changes at the storage layer where those files live.

  2. 02

    Block data theft tools

    Blocks known and suspicious tools used to collect and send files outside your business, closing a path attackers use to steal data.

  3. 03

    Control harmful scripts

    Stops unapproved scripts when they try to lock files. These small programs can run many tasks at once, which makes them useful to attackers.

  4. 04

    Resist destructive attacks

    Stops attacks that erase or damage files, including attacks that never ask for money. Your data stays intact and usable.

How RansomSnare works

Stops encryption at the first file.

RansomSnare reinforces existing EDR and XDR solutions to stop zero-day ransomware as it attempts to encrypt the very first file. Use our cloud dashboard, or send alerts to your SOC, SIEM, SOAR or ticketing system.

  • No signatures. Spots file locking without a list of known threats, so zero-day variants are caught too.
  • Backstops your EDR. A file-level layer behind the endpoint tools you already run.
  • Works offline. No connectivity required. Runs in air-gapped and isolated networks.
  • No update cycles. Protection is built into the core technology, not a feed.
