This article underscores ransomware as a top, cross-industry disruptor, highlighting statistics from the 2024 Verizon DBIR and IBM’s cost report, the compounding effects of data exfiltration and supply chain attacks (e.g., Kaseya), and the unreliability of ransom payments (e.g., Colonial Pipeline). It stresses that attackers often target backups, making recovery difficult, and advocates for integrated prevention and rapid remediation—ultimately promoting ESET Ransomware Remediation, which creates protected, targeted backups upon detection to speed recovery and strengthen business resilience.
