What a week. Every day we see a new city, police station, college, government agency, or company being affected by a ransomware attack. To make matters worse, they are getting hit with targeted ransomware that asks for a hefty price to get a decryptor.
This week we also saw the first real analysis of the MegaCortex Ransomware when a sample was found by MalwareHunterTeam. Along with this sample, though, came a wave of attacks that affected many organizations.
