Former cybersecurity ransomware negotiator turns to the dark side and into a ransomware cybercriminal.

Here is another ugly lesson in “be careful who you trust, even in cybersecurity”. We have seen malicious individuals, deceitful vendors, and products which were poorly managed create victims across the globe.
