Ransomware is a type of malicious software, or malware, that encrypts data on a computer making it unusable. A malicious cyber criminal holds the data hostage until the ransom is paid. If the ransom is not paid, the victim's data remains unavailable. Cyber criminals may also pressure victims to pay the ransom by threatening to destroy the victim's data or to release it to the public. Without cyber-security, companies cannot defend themselves at the time of the breach. It is impossible to stop cyber-attacks from occurring by relying on antiviruses.

There are others right now warning of impending disasters, but how do we know which warnings are likely to be right?
