Ransomware
The news “We’ve been hit with a ransomware attack,” no business leader wishes to hear. And rightfully so. Ransomware can devastate a business. Beyond the cost of the average $170,404 ransomware payment,1 successful ransomware attacks can trigger additional collateral costs, fees, and losses, including.
• Data loss
• Computer restoration costs
• Business interruption losses
• Brand and revenue losses
• Fines, legal fees, and higher insurance premiums
from a ransomware attack: $1.85 million. And the leading expense, greater than the ransomware payout itself, is the median twenty-one-day business interruption costs.
More troubling is the impact on employees and customers. It is not uncommon for a business to lose C-level talent, lay off employees, or close because of a successful ransomware attack. This disrupts employees’ lives and the company’s ability to serve its customers.
