Do you agree Riverdale school district handled the situation well by not paying the ransomware fee?

The threat of Bitcoin ransomware is never far away, and the Riverdale school district’s computer system learned that the hard way. Based on a report by North Jersey, the computer system fell victim to a ransomware attack, not that long ago. It is worth noting the district did not pay the ransom of two Bitcoin, as most of the data were recovered by reverting to previously made backups.
