Ransomware in the AI Era: Microsegmentation to Stop Lateral Movement - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Ransomware isn’t just “an endpoint problem”. Attackers use automation, living-off-the-land techniques, and increasingly AI-assisted reconnaissance to move faster once they’re inside. The difference between a bad day and a business-stopping event is whether they can move laterally and reach your most critical systems. In this session, we’ll break down the ransomware kill chain and show how microsegmentation becomes the most reliable containment control when patching can’t happen immediately, agents aren’t feasible everywhere, or identity controls fail. You’ll leave with practical segmentation patterns for high-value apps, identity chokepoints, and operational continuity. You’ll also see a phased rollout approach that reduces risk quickly without disrupting production. You will learn: - Why ransomware propagation is still the core failure mode (and what’s changed with automation/AI). - The 3 lateral-movement paths that matter most (identity, management plane, application-to-application). - Microsegmentation patterns that break propagation without breaking operations. - How to implement microsegmentation in phases: start small, prove value, expand safely. - How to measure success with board-friendly metrics (blast-radius reduction, time-to-contain, protected crown jewels).
