                    It’s safe to say that everyone is feeling pretty uneasy right now. Our reality is changing dramatically, as each day brings a wave of new information. Suddenly we’re all indoors as much as possible, and if we’re lucky, working remotely.

                    Today, any company without a plan to quickly and fully recover from a ransomware attack is whistling past the graveyard. In February, the New York Times reported that ransomware attacks in 2019 increased “41 percent” from the year before, with the average payment to release files increasing to “$84,116 in the last quarter of 2019, more than double what it was the previous quarter.” Meanwhile, the COVID-19 pandemic appears to be making the threat of ransomware worse.

                    To those of us who work in cybersecurity, hackers and nation state adversaries exploiting the pandemic to drive fear and misunderstanding is certainly horrific, but not at all unexpected. To put the situation into perspective, Tech Republic reported on a 667% increase in malicious email attacks in just a 22-day span (March 1-23). According to the article, more than 2% of those 467,000 spear-phishing emails detected were COVID-19 related.
