Ransonware reaches new highs

Hi All

 

Another story of an organisation being hit by Ransomware to the tune of US $34 Million, unfortunately a lot of brand names are also attached to this company as well:

So, if they don't pay out, will they receive a follow up "Cold Call" threatening to expose what data they have in the public? 

 

Then have a follow up call from the Privacy Commissioner, if they exist asking for an investigation and subsequent action from the organsiation?

 

Regards

Newly released data from Bitdefender's Mid-Year Threat Landscape Report 2020 shows a significant increase in ransomware attacks compared to previous years.
