Summary The ways in which humans have wrought or threatened violence upon one another for profit have evolved remarkably little in their basic form, from medieval Viking raids through to the ransomware gangs of today. Though ransomware itself is not a new problem, its sweeping impact demands innovative responses from governments and companies alike.
