<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Burton Strauss III, post: 2417050, member: 59677&quot;]IF you actually get 200Mbps between the end-points. In fact, while my connection tests out to be that fast, once you leave the blessed realm of the Cable Company network, it&#039;s a lot slower. End-to-end to my cloud provider I&#039;m seeing more like 7Mbps.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately most of the other ransomeware programs have learned from the mistake and are using strong crypto. So if you aren&#039;t careful, the next time won&#039;t be so &#039;simple&#039;.</p><p><br /></p><p>Like everything in life, it&#039;s a question of what you are willing &amp; able to risk vs. what you are willing &amp; able to spend.</p><p><br /></p><p>If it&#039;s really valuable and high risk, you reboot using a CD and make two full backups every night and send one off-site to IronMountain or the ilk. But then you have several dozen multi-terabyte drives to buy and a lot of work to perform.</p><p><br /></p><p>Or many other choices, on down to copying your data files to a USB stick a couple times a year when you remember to do it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Or do nothing and hope you are lucky - &quot;Sliding down the razor blade of life&quot; as I&#039;ve heard it described.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
