Ransomware outbreaks continue across 2017 – beware!
Approximately 54% of businesses in Britain experienced a ransomware outbreak last year, which saw their users’ files locked down and operations disrupted. Files are often not returned, even after the ransom is paid – there is never any guarantee!
With ransomware continuing to hit the headlines in 2017, knowledge of this type of malware is fundamental, to avoid being at the mercy of cybercriminals.
