Businesses of all sizes are hit by ransomware attacks every day. These new threats encrypt endpoints and servers and force organizations to pay a ransom for the encryption key to regain access to the information and device. A recent ZDNet article shows that damages related to ransomware attacks will reach $1 billion this year. What’s worse is that, of those companies who give into ransomware demands and pay, many will still never see their files.
