Ransomware attackers are notoriously opportunistic. According to the VMware Carbon Black 2021 Cybersecurity Outlook survey, 66 percent of security teams and IT professionals reported being targeted by ransomware in the past year – much of which likely sold by e-crime groups on the dark web as Ransomware as a Service. In a similar VMware report, 89 percent of CISOs in the financial services sector indicated that they experienced an increase in the number of cyberattacks, and 67 percent said they fear a material breach.
