This blog post warns that mid-market enterprises are attractive targets for generic, scalable ransomware (illustrated by a Cryptowall infection at a law firm), describes common delivery methods (phishing, compromised sites) and infection mechanics (C2-based key retrieval), and advocates detection controls (malicious attachment/website blocking, sandboxing, outbound C2 detection) and cloud migration as mitigations.
