RYUK ransomware statistics & facts
RANSOM AMOUNTS
Since the victims of RYUK attacks are often enterprises and large organizations, the ransom amount is usually higher than with other ransomware variants.
However, these attackers have been known to demand different amounts based on the data they have on the organization. The average RYUK ransom amount is somewhere between $100,000–$350,000. However, in some cases, attackers have made demands as high as $800,000 to over $1 Million. If purchasing Bitcoin using quick-buy methods like credit card or PayPal, an additional 10% fee will be charged on top of this by cryptocurrency exchanges.
AVERAGE LENGTH
The downtime is longer than normal attacks due to the manual process of email-based communication with the attackers, which adds a considerable delay in the response time and data recovery process.
Since this is an enterprise-level attack, the longer your systems and files are held hostage, the costlier it will be in terms of PR damage. Your goal should be to get your systems back to productive state as soon as possible. The best way to do this is to call in experts like BeforeCrypt, who have a vast knowledge of this ransomware.
