While the distribution of ransomware has definitely decreased, it is still very much a threat as seen by the Alaskan borough of Matanuska-Susitna and the shipping company Cosco getting hit by ransomware this week. Both attacks shut down their operations and caused normal workflow to be halted.

The good news, though, is that decryptors continue to be created for some ransomware families, which will allow victims to get their files back for free.
