OVERVIEW
Ransomware has become more prevalent than ever, and predictions are that it will continue to be a major form of cybercrime in the coming years. Ransomware is a type of malware designed to encrypt files or even entire drives so that the business infected can no longer access these files or systems without the key to unlock the encryption, which of course is not available unless a ransom is paid, almost always via a cryptocurrency. This can have a devastating effect on the attacked organization, creating an atmosphere of desperation, that can be mitigated with the preparation or avoided altogether with strategic prevention.
