juul_advocate writes: Norwegian firm Volue Technology has demonstrated to the rest of the world how a ransomware attack should be handled after it was hit by the Windows Ryuk strain on 5 May. The company has set up a Web page with information about the attack and also links to frequent updates about the status of its systems. There was no obfuscation about the attack, none at all. The company said: "The ransomware attack on Volue Technology ('Powel') was caused by Ryuk, a type of malware usually known for targeting large, public-entity Microsoft Windows systems."
