In 2020, ransomware attacks increased by 150% from the previous year, and ransom payments grew by 200%. That trend is up in 2021. Within the first six months of this year, many high-profile ransomware attacks targeting critical infrastructure, municipalities, financial institutions, healthcare, and other businesses have hit the headlines. The impact of these attacks spans beyond the victim enterprise, affecting their ecosystem of partners, supply-chain, customers, and even the government.
