In Malaysia alone, ransomware cases have surged, affecting everyone from large corporations to small family-run businesses. According to CyberSecurity Malaysia, incidents of ransomware attacks have increased by over 50% in recent years, putting both personal data and corporate data backup strategies to the test.
