“One of the most critical decisions in the wake of a ransomware attack is whether to pay the ransom. This decision isn’t just about recovering data—it’s about considering the long-term implications, such as funding criminal activity and the reliability of the data recovery. It’s not uncommon for a cybercriminal to demand a second ransom after a victim has paid the first. After all, they’ve proven they’re willing to pay up.”
