Most of us know that a ransomware is a type of malicious software that is designed to encrypt the files on a victim's computer, making them inaccessible until a ransom is paid.

What damages that ransomware can do:

    It encrypts or delete important files, making them inaccessible or unusable.

    Need data back then you must pay, it is costly, and there is no guarantee that paying the ransom will result in the recovery of the encrypted files.
  • Business downtime
    It will disrupt business operations, causing downtime and loss of revenue.
  • Reputation damage
    It can damage a company's reputation and lead to a loss of customer trust.

  3. Prevent disaster and have in place post-disaster recovery.
    Microsoft Azure has a solution to Protect backups from Ransomware, Isolated Backup Vault.
  4. Active awareness – all employees must be trained how to act.
    Any corporates usually require that all employee to pass every month-three month an ‘exam’: watch a 20-minute video and then answer to 10 – 15 questions.
    It is about how to protect company system against ransomware.
    It worths to spend money on training employees because they are the entry point of ransomware. I can help with this just now.
Someone may need NON-cloud physical SSD/BlueRay backups, can appear obsolete but it is an option and personal decision.
