The emergence of FunkSec, a new ransomware group responsible for over 100 of those attacks, demonstrates how quickly new actors are capitalizing on vulnerabilities. With #hypervisors at the heart of modern IT infrastructure, the escalating threat of ransomware represents an urgent call to action to ensure protection across your entire environment.
