I’m the IT Security Analyst for a medium sized company. We had a ransomware breach and they stole a ton of data. It happened right before I was about to go to bed after a long day.
36 hours later, I was finally able to get a few hours of sleep. The whole ordeal took about 2 dedicated weeks to resolve.
It was a nightmare and I still wake up in a panicked sweat on the anniversary of it every year. Good news is, all of the tools they were telling me we couldn’t afford were bought and to this day I get very little pushback when it comes to the security budget.
