Ransomeware got into the place I work. The IT server group got called in and spent the night. In the morning, almost everything was restored from the backups.*

I was unaffected: I (and the other developers) have a box and were not in the forest when the fire broke out. I've had fear of attack since the 80's. For the hell of it, I keep my (home) NAS offline much of the time. Sounds crazy, but it's become storage central (do they call that a personal cloud these days). All goodies survived super storm Sandy on it's raid-1 drives, and I only lost the computers. Much easier to replace.

Except for the every-increasing cost of good aluminum foil, paranoia has its perks.
