Ransomware is on the rise and can cause a costly and potentially catastrophic situation for organizations.

• Infection starts at a workstation
• Workstation can get infected by an email attachment OR by visiting a website
• Starts by infecting user document folder
• Spreads to network share that workstation is connected to it
• AV can automatically remove the infection AND encryption key.  If this happens it can cause the infection antidote to be useless
• User I presented with Ransom Note (stored on desktop)
• User NEVER admits to seeing Note (from our experience)!
• Ransom ranges from a few hundred to THOUSANDS of Dollars OR Bitcoins
