Well Whaddya Know – Ransomware’s a Thing
Verizon reported a 13% year-over-year increase in ransomware.
“There are many factors behind the acceleration of ransomware in 2022, from rising financial and political incentives for cybercrime to the proliferation of malware and exploits through easily accessible darknet markets,” said Chris Olson, CEO of digital safety provider The Media Trust. “Moreover, attackers are increasingly leaning on the web and mobile devices as channels for ransomware spread, expanding the number of surfaces through which consumers, organizations and government agencies can be targeted.”
