Easy money is hard to come by. Unless you’re in the ransomware business. Then tens of millions of dollars can be yours in a single, unsuspecting click. Quick cash grabs fuel a worldwide economy, funneling extorted funds into secret bank accounts, hackers’ salaries, and even government pockets. 

In a world where your data is the gateway to a thief’s payday, all is not lost.

Cybercrime vigilantes like The Ransomware Hunting Team volunteer their time to make the digital world a safer place. Chances are, one day you’re going to need help from them. And when you do, this band of cyber wizards will be ready.

Get a copy of Renee Dudly and Daniel Golden's book, The Ransomware Hunting Team, on Amazon, Bookshop, or Audible today.
