'Twas the night before Crypto....



It was the night before Crypto when all through the LAN, not a backup was stirring — they simply had a poor plan.
Oh the tapes were stacked up and the hard drives were all there, but nothing was working and they were not even aware.
 
The workers were working and inputting with care, but little did they know, CryptoWall soon would be there.

The bosses were all snug and nestled in their chairs, counting their money and combing their hair. They were smug and content to skimp on IT, that strategy would backfire, soon they would see.

A website was hacked and the damage was sudden, and then there was a message — could it be Russian?

Away, yes away to the Bitcoin website, we have to pay, because we didn't backup for at least a fortnight.

The lesson was learned and CMIT was summoned: GUARDIAN for all, and for all a good night.
