“if you received an email notifying you all the information on your computer was now encrypted unless you paid a ransom, what would you do? Have you regularly backed your data to an external drive or off-site location? Does your business continuity plan account for the loss of data in this manner? Our data being taken hostage is the reality of the world we now live in. We need to be on the defensive at all times.”
