Jackson County, Georgia: had a ransomware infection and ended up paying $400.000 to the attackers to get their files back. It was cheaper than rebuilding from the ground up. #cososec https://www.zdnet.com/article/georgia-county-pays-a-whopping-400000-to-get-rid-of-a-ransomware-infection/
@estherschindler WTF! Seriously, does nobody do 3-2-1 backups any longer?!
Shit, I could restore my entire office within 3 hours, and my clients within 24.
Hell, I even send my clients regular notifications and warnings about this kind of shit, and confirm they are on top of rotating their backup systems.
