summary
Ransomware now causes operational harm, not just record theft: healthcare breaches rise 2,733% over a decade and a patient-facing system outage costs tens of millions—vcpi’s refused $14M ransom triggered double extortion, UHS affects ~250 of 400 sites and costs ~$67M, University of Vermont faces ~$64M and national guard support, Dusseldorf links to a patient death. 66% of US providers fall below NIST level 3. Defenses recommended: network segmentation, EDR, MFA/PAM, regular compromise assessments, runbook drills and security validation in production.
