Hot Take:

Looks like Hoya Corporation is currently starring in their very own cyber-soap opera, "As the Ransomware Turns." In our latest episode, Hunters International, a group with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer, has slapped a $10 million price tag on their latest heist. No discounts, no negotiations – it's like the worst car salesperson you've ever met, but instead of a lemon, you're stuck with 2 TB of potentially sensitive data hanging over your head. Buckle up, Hoya; it's going to be a bumpy ride in the land of ransomware romance.
