So what’s interesting is only a few years ago, ransomware such as CryptoLocker largely targeted individuals home machines as opposed to companies. Companies being hit was rarer.

The ransom would be a few hundred dollars.

Things got rather interesting after WannaCry and NotPetya - some underground markets/sites banned discussion of ransomware for a while, a lot of groups went quiet.

Then it came back with almost exclusively targeting of enterprise/companies for big payoffs instead of a shitload of small payoffs.
