BNC and BullWall: A Strong Partnership for Effective Ransomware Protection

United Against Ransomware

The partnership between BNC and Danish cybersecurity specialist BullWall has become a key force in the fight against modern cyber threats – complementing traditional IT security measures.

Many organizations rely on well-established defenses like antivirus software and EDR solutions (Endpoint Detection & Response), firewalls and network segmentation, phishing filters and email security, backups and disaster recovery plans, or employee security awareness training. But today’s ransomware attacks are highly targeted, multi-layered, and often bypass even well-configured systems. Once attackers gain internal access rights, they can begin encrypting entire file systems uncontrollably.

With unique, immediately effective technologies like Ransomware Containment and Server Intrusion Protection, BullWall enhances BNC’s cybersecurity portfolio where traditional protection mechanisms often fall short.

BullWall Ransomware Containment: Your Last Line of Defense

Ransomware Containment monitors file activity in real time, automatically detects suspicious encryption behavior, and isolates affected users or devices within seconds – regardless of whether the ransomware is known or brand new. This allows attacks to be stopped at the critical moment. For customers, this means ransomware can no longer cause damage, and operations continue without disruption.

“Ransomware can encrypt up to 50,000 files per minute. With BullWall Ransomware Containment, we stop the attack so that no more than 70 files are affected. That’s true reaction speed – and often the difference between a manageable incident and a complete shutdown.” Achim Büttner, Solutions Architect, Secure Data Access at BNC.

Server Intrusion Protection: Blocking Unauthorized RDP Access

BullWall’s Server Intrusion Protection is specifically designed to protect server access via the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). A lightweight agent on the target system detects login attempts, analyzes their origin and legitimacy, and automatically blocks unauthorized access – before an intruder can gain control.

Virtual Server Protection (VSP) for VMware: Securing Virtual Environments

BullWall VSP extends protection to VMware environments. The solution monitors virtual machines directly at the storage level (e.g., vSAN or datastores), detects suspicious encryption activity, and instantly isolates affected VMs – without impacting other systems in the cluster.

“BullWall isn’t a replacement for traditional tools like firewalls or EDR – it fills a critical gap that opens up once attackers are already inside. That’s when BullWall steps in and stops ransomware from spreading in real time. This targeted addition helps our customers contain incidents before they become full-blown crises.” Aris Vivelis, Key Account Manager at BNC
