Halcyon: How Anti-Ransomware is Protecting Companies Globally


Ransomware threats have been growing exponentially, representing one of the greatest cybersecurity risks for businesses and governments worldwide. The financial and operational impact of these attacks can be devastating, ranging from the theft of sensitive data to the complete disruption of essential services. In this context, Halcyon stands out as an innovative anti-ransomware solution, providing proactive protection and a robust response to minimize the damage caused by such attacks.


The Rise of Ransomware Threats

In recent years, ransomware attacks have become more sophisticated and frequent. According to global security reports:

  • The average cost of a ransomware attack for businesses exceeds $4 million, considering ransom payments, data loss, and service interruptions.

  • Brazil is among the most affected countries, with sectors such as healthcare, finance, and infrastructure being frequent targets.

These attacks not only cause financial losses but also erode customer trust and the reputation of organizations. The need for proactive and resilient solutions has never been more urgent.
