What it Takes to Stop Ransomware Threats

The world’s uncertainty in the global pandemic is stressful enough to keep in business. However, there is an ever-present and growing concern that your business is being hacked by those who want to harm you – or at least for profit. Here’s how to stop ransomware threats.

One of the newest types of cyber threats is the world of ransomware. Ransomware is a particularly nefarious attack in which the hacker holds your files as a ransom and encrypts them until you pay your ransom. The ransom is often demanded and paid in cryptocurrency, especially Bitcoin. There are even services offered by hackers called ransomware. 76% of businesses are expected to be hacked over the next 5 years so be ready and careful.
