Ransomware has not gone away

Just in case you thought that ransomware was a thing of the past or that the threat actors only went after big businesses, then think again:

The NoName ransomware gang has been targeting small and medium-sized businesses worldwide with its malware. Exploiting known vulnerabilities that these organisations have not patched to gain brute force access to their systems. One twist to their malware is an “erase all” command if the threat actors get annoyed or just want to cause mischief.

Evidence online suggests they are good at this and are making money from it.

Your Takeaway

I have said it before – you need a plan!
