Case Study: a mid-sized manufacturing company saves $25,000 after ransomware with Envista Forensics

Mid-Sized Manufacturing Company saves $25,000 with Envista Forensics after ransomware attack

a mid-sized manufacturing company was impacted by a ransomware attack that encrypted its critical production, inventory, and accounting data. The company filed a $50,000 insurance claim to replace its IT equipment. Envista Forensics was engaged by the carrier to confirm the attack and determine the fair remediation costs.

Envista Forensics determined the ransomware did not cause physical damage to the equipment, making replacement unnecessary. Their solution was to wipe and reload the existing infected hardware and restore data from backups after paying associated overage charges. This approach cost approximately $25,000, saving the client $25,000 on their initial claim while successfully restoring the network to its pre-loss condition.
