Traditionally, ransomware attacks followed a somewhat predictable pattern: cybercriminals would encrypt files within a targeted system, and in exchange for the decryption key, they would demand a ransom, typically paid in cryptocurrency. This simple yet effective model has brought significant disruption to businesses, large and small. However, a pivotal incident in late 2019 changed the trajectory of ransomware attacks and set the stage for an alarming shift in cybercrime….
