The Ransomware Files podcast tells the harrowing stories of technology experts who have fought back against ransomware, which is one of the greatest crime waves the internet has ever seen. It features in-the-trenches stories about how organisations recovered and frank human reflections from those who have faced file-encrypting malware, a potent weapon used by high-tech criminals.

Guest Episode: The Storm
The Ransomware Files is pleased to host a special guest episode from our friends at Hacked. In mid-April, there was a ransomware attack. It wasn’t against a small business. It wasn’t directed at a large company or even a large city. It was against a country: Costa Rica. The Conti ransomware gang struck more than two dozen government bodies in Costa Rica in a wave of attacks. It was a demonstration of power and bravado with a motivation that appeared to go way beyond the usual aim of collecting a ransom.
