Insuring they’ll be targeted for decades to come by paying the terrorists

“I don’t see anything in the article that says the ransom payment worked”

If it is an inside job they will definitely not want to talk about it.

Of course, and how many drives would 1.1 million buy I wonder....
The company I last worked at had a ransomware attack on the network. Not all systems affected. The solution was to wipe the drives and put back a backup from a day before the attack. Any new files on the day of the attack were lost.
