Ensuring Business Resilience Against Ransomware | Episode 2

Welcome to the second episode of the Akamai Segmentation Podcast series, where we explore the evolving ransomware threat landscape and strategies organizations are adopting to improve resilience. In 2025, ransomware showed no signs of slowing down, shifting from noisy encryption attacks to quieter, more disruptive campaigns that test operational continuity. In this in-depth discussion, Richard Meeus, Director of Security Technology and Strategy at Akamai, shares insights from the frontlines, including how U.K.-based organizations in retail and manufacturing have experienced repeated operational disruptions. Meeus highlights that while regulatory pressure has reduced ransom payments, recovery times are growing longer, meaning the true impact of ransomware extends beyond financial loss. We’ll also cover: How ransomware campaigns are forcing organizations to roll back digital capabilities or operate manually Why lateral movement is the critical inflection point in ransomware attacks The role of AI in lowering the barrier to entry for threat actors How supply chain concentration increases ransomware risk Whether you’re focused on ransomware defense, operational resilience, or Zero Trust strategies, this episode provides practical insights and guidance from an industry expert.
