<p dir="ltr">Through the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), organisations can effectively navigate the swiftly evolving landscape of cyber threats, particularly in the realm of ransomware. AI facilitates adaptive responses to the dynamic attack environment, enabling the identification and extraction of forensically relevant information from both known and unknown ransomware attacks. The application of multiple machine learning models in a multi-stage detection mechanism is explored and focusing on enhancing ransomware detection capabilities. This intelligent approach not only strengthens the ability to identify and thwart ransomware incidents but also uncovers details that may have been previously overlooked. The continuous learning and evolution inherent in AI contribute to the development of a sophisticated arsenal of evidence, providing investigators with a robust foundation for legal proceedings</p>
