RE: Most errors are caused by humans
Great info. I had to help a client with a ransomware attack one time. It was not fun at all. We had some backups but basically I just had to tell them to start over. Paying the ransom wasn't an option at all. It was just crazy. Always a good idea to be careful.
No, with the ransomware yo have to reinstall everything and hoping that you have a good back-up. A lot of people forget to do it.... Paying isn't of any use because you have to reinstall anyway. Even if they unlock your files, I wouldn't take the risk that they still have a sleeping virus on your machine..
