If your company gets hit by ransomware and you can't just restore from backups your organisation has been managed by clowns.
The majority of all organizations are managed by clowns. Clowns do the managing, and assorted mix of competent and incompetent people do the doing.
I thought one of the more effective tactics ransomware uses is that it lurks for long periods of time decrypting data on the fly, so that all the backups are encrypted as well for that time period.
