Ransomware attackers are like virtual highwaymen, stopping innocent people going about their daily business and demanding money. Ok, so nobody’s threatening “your money or your life!” but the damage caused by ransomware attacks can – and have – killed plenty of businesses.

You may think you’re already doing plenty to avoid cyber attacks – you’ve invested in the latest security software protection across your entire network, and your team knows how to spot a dodgy email from a mile off. Unfortunately, it’s not that simple. Cyber attacks are still happening in their thousands every single day, and although not all of them are successful, those that are cost billions to put right. Hackers are constantly coming up with new threats and sneaky ways to catch people out, so it’s always a good idea to add an extra layer of protection.
