By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1}

A wave of ransomware attacks targeting critical infrastructure in recent weeks is a stark reminder that the ransomware problem will continue to get worse before it gets better — despite the U.S. government's best efforts.

  • So far this year, there have been 317 publicly reported ransomware attacks against health care entities, Allan Liska, a ransomware expert at Recorded Future, told Axios Codebook author Sam Sabin.

That already surpasses last year's 245.

⌨️ Hackers' record ransom
mail?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgraphics.axios.co
Data: Chainalysis. Chart: Axios Visuals

Hackers made off with roughly $1.1 billion from ransomware attacks in 2023 — setting a record, Axios' Sam Sabin writes from a new report from cryptocurrency tracing firm Chainalysis.

Why it matters: Hackers follow the money, and are quick to adapt their tactics to counteract law enforcement attempts to squash ransomware.

🧮 By the numbers: In 2023, ransomware hackers brought in roughly double 2022's total of $567 million in cryptocurrency from cyberattacks.

🔎 Between the lines: For some businesses, it is sometimes cheaper to pay a ransom than to lose revenue from downed services and locked systems.

  • Chainalysis also attributes the rise in payments in 2023 to the growing number of gangs getting involved in ransomware.
