I’d vote for Pegasus (The NSO spyware) if that were an option.

Failing that, REvil - because it has the perfect name for this competion!

I have to go with the REvil crowd -- affected companies via the companies supposed to be protecting them. That’s tough.   So, do we let Lemonduck stay on the network long enough to remove all of its competition, and then we kill it off?  Let it do some of the work for us…   :-)

So are their any hard rules  with Ransomware folks who threaten to release data?  And I’m curious if encrypted discs offer any protection for stolen files?
