Between a rock and a hard place.

A clear example of why banning the payment of ransomware, is an impossible mission to follow for governments and regulators, in the absence of any alternate solution. Albeit in the case of United Health there’s no indication that it did anything to get data back, or prevent the rebuild of its infrastructure.

The decision to pay when everything is going against you is a difficult one. More so when you find out that you’re Critical National Infrastructure (CNI), have significantly affected national healthcare and responsible in part to a major national cyber outage.
