Forty countries are expected to sign a pledge today to never pay a ransom demand to cybercriminals again. The signing should take place during the third annual International Counter-Ransomware Initiative (CRI) summit, which kicked off earlier this week in Washington, D.C.
The move comes as a direct response to the recent wave of record-breaking ransomware activity, according to the Biden Administration's Deputy National Security Adviser for Cyber and Emerging Technology, Anne Neuberger.
