Nah. Rip that shit right out of the chassis. Destroy that RJ45 port. Make it so the security audit team has to resolder a jack to the mobo before they can even ssh to the box.

I vaguely remember the advice actually being to leave it running but disconnect it from the internet. Although maybe hard disconnect the backups if you can.
Depends. If you’re at home with a single endpoint, maybe.
But in cases like the image there’s a lot of internal traffic and you’d want to stop the malware spreading internally. There might not even be internet connection at all.
Most serious infections are able to work within isolated internal network. You can stop data breaches by cutting external traffic but if you have ransomware you might want to cut internal connections too.
You might be able to stop the ransomware from triggering on some devices. That of course depends on the type of ransomware and whether it’s triggered based on time, external command or something else.

Uh no
Go to the main breaker that feed the servers whatever. And pull the 600v switch off
The smartest layout for that situation is having the main breaker box close to the hooman IT operator room
No choice if it is very serious breach
No, have a Safety Control Rod Axe Man. The dropping rod hits the breakers and smashes it, cutting power!
Should be a trunk line disconnect switch that kills both power and data. And if your manager is cool, then it’s a guillotine switch.

Y’all… just… unhook the cable from the demarc…?
Yea but it take time !!!
How many shit you have to unhook from whatever to save the shit ?? 100 ?? That take minutes !!!

Great idea, and realize likely a joke, but wouldn’t you just need to pull the one or two that connect out to the internet?

Break and pull now, those are a mess
You are not invited to look at my setup then.
These are clearly put together with care.
Ok but what about the door handle
Hahahahahaahhahaha
