Ransomware: Understanding and Protecting Your Data

With upwards of 37% of global organisations experiencing a ransomware attack in 2021, there's no wonder that cyber security is becoming increasingly more important. Ransomware is becoming more sophisticated, accurate and expensive by the day. In 95% of cases, the average ransomware related cost was just above £10,000.
