Got a call from a client today who was having some sort of error with
the program/website (WestWind WebConnection). I remoted in to see that
EVERY file had been renamed to something like
filename.ext.decrypt12...@qq.com. Told them their IT vendor would have
to restore from their last backup (which they said was just hours prior,
thankfully).
Ouch. Especially when you're website is used all over the nation and
Canada.
If they had been using MySQL/MariaDB/SQL-Server/PostgreSQL/etc instead
of a file-server database, this wouldn't have been possible, right?
