The problem of ransomware is a seemingly age-old problem that is not going away, at least not any time soon.

News of a ransomware attack or a new malware strain being discovered is a daily occurrence and only adds to the apprehension and anxiety business leaders and security teams feel. Businesses of all sizes are under threat and must mobilize to better understand the enemy, what their methods are, how they operate and how they are getting away with it.
