Ransomware attacks seem like the kind of things that happen infrequently and only to big corporations. But here's a sobering fact for you: in the past couple of years, more than 1/3 of all businesses with a significant IT infrastructure have been targeted by ransomware attacks. That's a staggering number of businesses that have come under attack from these digital pirates. Proximitum provides state-of-the-art ransomware protection in Leicester that prevents your company from becoming just another sorry statistic.
In May of 2021, Colonial Pipeline in the US was struck by a ransomware attack that disrupted energy distribution along the entire eastern seaboard of the US. It was a stunning assault that caught officials there off-guard and led to tens of billions of dollars in economic losses. The danger for businesses is believing that this type of attack couldn’t happen to them. It can. And in time, it will.
While it's the high profile ransomware attacks that grab the headlines, lesser attacks are often the more devastating. The average ransom demand skyrocketed in 2020 and now stands at more than £200,000. That may be tip money for a multinational conglomerate, but for a medium-sized business, it could threaten their continued viability. Keep in mind too that attackers often return to torment companies they had success extorting money from before, so £200,000 may be just the beginning.
The people behind ransomware attacks don't care if your business survives the attack or not. Their only goal is to extort as much money as possible from you before moving on to the next victim. If you are to protect the Leicester business you have nurtured all these years from these digital pirates you need Proximitum ransomware protection on your side.
