Huntress announces updates to its Ransomware Canaries service, adding support for .xlsx and .pdf canary files, monitoring within the system profile, and improved detection logic to distinguish EFS encryption from ransomware activity, thereby reducing false positives. The update also introduces partner branding on canary files to route end users to the appropriate support resources and empower MSPs to lead the security conversation.
