<p>But if you pay without finding how they got in, they could turn
around and do it again, or sell it on the dark web, right?</p>

Not exactly network but maybe, but certainly operational.
Shouldn't this <br>
just be handled like disaster recovery? I haven't looked
into this much, <br>
but it sounds like the only way to stop it is to stop paying
the crooks. <br>
There is also the obvious problem that if they got in,
something (or <br>
someone) is compromised that needs to be cleaned which
sounds sort of <br>
like DR again to me.<br>
