Ransomware encrypted a KL component price book

A 20,000-SKU distributor lost quoting for three days and faced a large ransom demand.

Indicative exposure

RM 430,000

Typical protection range

Solution D on our assessment

What went wrong

Ransomware encrypted the supplier cost matrix. Quotes stopped.

What it cost if nothing changed

Three days of lost quotes (about RM 150,000) plus a ransom demand around RM 280,000.

What we would put in place

We restored from immutable snapshots behind a tighter gateway so quoting does not depend on paying the attacker.

The outcome we design for

Restore target is under an hour, with RM 0 ransom as the recovery path.

This is an anonymized composite scenario used to explain a failure pattern. It is not a named client case study or a guaranteed quote. Actual scope comes from the assessment.

If this is close to your situation, start with the same assessment we use to map Solution A–G.
