Ransomware detection software for proactive threat response
Kaseya RMM solutions offer native ransomware detection powered by proprietary behavioral analysis to monitor endpoints for crypto ransomware. Get an added layer of security for your network with automated response actions that keep you one step ahead of attacks.
Detect ransomware before it threatens your business
Kaseya's ransomware detection software puts your organization in control when threats arise. Instead of reacting after ransomware takes hold, your team can act fast and contain the situation from the start.
Prevent widespread ransomware encryption
Neutralize ransomware instantly by detecting suspicious activity in real time and isolating compromised endpoints to stop it from spreading. Contain threats with policy-driven automation that keeps critical systems safe.
“One of the standout features is its built-in ransomware detection. It actively monitors for suspicious behavior and alerts us instantly, giving us a critical edge in responding to threats before they escalate. It’s a game-changer.” Adam Cochran, Vice President of Operations, SBT Partners
Minimize disruption to everyday operations
Deploy automated response actions to kill suspected ransomware processes, so your team can act quickly with timely alerts and remote resolution. Limit the impact and reduce recovery efforts with a coordinated response.
“I find Datto RMM incredibly valuable for its built-in security features, especially the ransomware detection and response system that has been instrumental in preventing hacking attempts on our network.” Joseph Harwell, Energy Engineer, Seiberlich Trane Energy Services
Avoid reputational and financial damage
Reduce the risk of costly ransom demands, regulatory fines and data breaches. Early detection and rapid intervention cut attackers off before escalation, helping your organization lower recovery costs, maintain compliance and protect customer trust.
“Attackers exploited a weakness in one of our servers, but Datto RMM identified the ransomware attack in milliseconds and shutdown the server, protecting the whole environment from a disaster.” Nathan Wright, Managing Director, NW Computing
Maintain data integrity and business continuity
Protect sensitive information and keep business-critical systems intact, even in worst-case scenarios. Pre-integrated recovery solutions streamline restoration for a faster return to normal operations while minimizing downtime and risk.
“Without Datto, we would have likely been subjected to the industry norm of a six- to 12-month turnaround for complete restoration of our client’s environment vs. the two months that we were able to realize with Datto.” Craig Staffin, Chief Technology Officer, BCS

Ransomware detection that keeps operations running smoothly
Kaseya's ransomware detection software protects your data and systems with intelligent features that make it easy to defend against attacks. From early identification to automated quarantine and recovery integration, Kaseya has you covered at every turn.
Behavior-based detection
Go beyond signature-based detection with proprietary behavioral analysis that spots suspicious file activity linked to ransomware attacks, including rapid encryption, unauthorized access to system files and unusual file-renaming patterns.
Policy-based configuration
Efficiently check for ransomware at scale with customizable policies tailored to your environment. Choose specific drives, paths and file types to scan, define alert criteria and configure automated responses like device isolation or ticket creation.
Immediate notifications
Activate real-time alerts that notify your team the moment ransomware begins encrypting files. Detect attacks before users notice and help your technicians move fast to contain damage before it spreads across your network.
Automated endpoint isolation
Automatically isolate compromised endpoints to disconnect them from the network and stop ransomware encryption from spreading to other devices. Halt lateral ransomware movement while maintaining contact with the RMM for further investigation.
Ransomware process termination
Configure monitoring policies to automatically attempt to kill ransomware processes as soon as suspicious behavior is identified. Paired with network isolation, these actions work together to contain threats and stop encryption activity in its tracks.
Integrated PSA and ticketing
Seamlessly connect with leading PSA software to trigger alerts, auto-generate tickets and notify technicians instantly. Ensure no threat goes unseen and the right teams respond without delay to minimize impact and accelerate resolution.
Remote issue remediation
Maintain total control with RMM access to isolated devices for secure, remote response. Investigate, contain and resolve suspected ransomware incidents from any location without reconnecting to the network or needing physical access to the endpoint.
Rapid restoration and recovery
Recover quickly with integrated business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) tools. Restore infected endpoints to a pre-attack state using reliable backup snapshots, minimizing downtime, data loss and disruption across your users and IT infrastructure.

Ransomware detection is the practice of identifying malicious software activity before it encrypts files or disrupts systems. By spotting threats early, organizations can take immediate action to contain attacks and protect their environments.
This capability is critical because ransomware spreads quickly and can inflict severe financial, operational and reputational damage. With effective detection, IT teams can respond in real time, minimize the impact and maintain continuity of essential business operations.
Ransomware is detected using various methods designed to identify threats at different stages of an attack. The most common of these are:
- Signature-based detection: Compares files and processes against known ransomware patterns to block familiar threats.
- Behavior-based detection: Monitors for suspicious activity such as mass file encryption or unusual access attempts, helping identify new or unknown variants.
- Network traffic analysis: Monitors communications, such as command-and-control activity or unusual spikes in data transfer, to flag ransomware before it causes widespread harm.
Behavioral analysis detects ransomware by monitoring how files, processes and systems behave in real time. Instead of relying on a database of known threats, it looks for telltale actions like rapid encryption, mass renaming of files or attempts to disable backups.
This method is more beneficial than traditional techniques because it can identify zero-day ransomware, polymorphic variants and other advanced strains that signature-based tools often miss. By focusing on activity rather than static patterns, behavioral analysis provides faster, more reliable protection against evolving ransomware threats.
