Red screens means red faces. Prevent, don’t pay!
Ransomware is causing all the rage right now. That’s why we’ve tested products that offer protection from ransomware.
It’s the type of threat that gets attention because a successful attack is extremely visible (the attacker needs you to know it’s worked, or you won’t pay!) Also, there is a direct and substantial cost attached to it. In addition to paying security specialists to help, there’s a fat ransom demand sitting on your screen.
