This book follows the teammates as they respond to dire calls for help--and tracks the ups and downs of their work as they race to rescue precious files and communicate directly with their adversaries.
Working in their free time from bedrooms and back offices, they offer their services pro bono to those whom the FBI, other government agencies, and the private sector are unwilling or unable to help.
The Ransomware Hunting Team is the incredible true story of a Band of misfits who have used their extraordinary skills to Save millions of Ransomware victims from paying billions of dollars to criminals.
Again and again, these ordinary people, mostly self-taught and often struggling to make ends meet, have outwitted the shadowy networks of hackers and criminal gangs that lock computer networks and extort huge payments in return for the key.

You\'ve probably never heard of them.
