Dec 16, 2015 at 18:06 comment added aristotle85 I think the problem is that the director was, probably, asked to pay ransom to those responsible for the attack, as implied in this quote by the director >"I might just pay [a ransom] next time,” but the article doesn't mention whether this happened or not. This might lead one to think that ransom is meant for the IT supplier, which doesn't make sense since they aren't the ones holding the data 'hostage'.
