Thank you, very interesting reading

The attackers work with large numbers, the huge spread of the ransomware through many channels, always causes many victims.
It is crucial the awareness of thinking that social engineering attacks are becoming more sophisticated, now the malicious email are perfectly written in your native language, without grammatical errors, in my experience.

Yeah... agree with you that definitely need a backup policy.
It's getting more and more fancy and Creative of the ideas they inject into Ransomware. Just looking at phishing as point of entry - they are getting more and more professional in the way they wrote those BECs to spoof ppl. Zzz
