Summary:
In a controlled simulation environment, Phosphor Group tested containment strategies for ransomware attacks on an anonymized mid-size enterprise network.
Key Findings:
- Containment Speed: Isolated nodes reduced lateral movement by 42% compared to baseline protocols.
- Recovery Time: Full system restoration achieved in under 6 hours during best-case scenario simulations.
- Threat Propagation Patterns: Simulations highlight predictable attack paths, allowing preemptive countermeasures.
Visuals / Charts:

- Timeline of containment actions vs. threat spread
- Table of nodes isolated and recovery time
Actionable Insights:
- Preemptive network segmentation is critical for rapid mitigation.
- AI-assisted monitoring tools can flag high-risk nodes in real time.
- Recommend quarterly simulation drills to refine response protocols.
