Case Study: Largest Technology Manufacturing Company stops TeslaCrypt attacks with Carbon Black

Technology Manufacturer Stops TeslaCrypt Attack

The Largest Technology Manufacturing Company faced a serious ransomware incident after a phishing email with a malicious PDF led to Teslacrypt infections on 200+ endpoints and halted business operations. Despite having antivirus in place, the zero-day exploit went undetected, creating an urgent need for better visibility and protection. Carbon Black’s Cb Response and Cb Protection were brought in to help stop the attack and secure the environment.

Carbon Black quickly helped the company investigate the kill chain, identify the downloaded executables, and remediate the threat. The team then deployed Cb Protection to block future execution and moved endpoints into High Enforcement for stronger defense. As a result, Carbon Black enabled the company to stop additional attacks and achieve zero breaches after deployment.
