Ransomware is a remote, digital shakedown. It is disruptive and expensive, and it affects organizations of all sizes and in many industries. Government, however, faces greater risks and impact.

Focusing defensive efforts in key areas and with practiced response planning may allow organizations to stop ransomware before it is deployed.
