Ransomware gets a lot faster by encrypting the master file table instead of the filesystem

Emailed Word docs seem the most common attack vector for successful ransomware attacks these days.

An attack made all the more credible because people still send me attachments (Word and PDF files) for minimally formatted text ! Just past the relevant damn text into the email. Don’t attach it!!! Grrrr, ought to be a law…
