As always, Allan dedicates this book to Kris and Bruce.
Tim dedicates this book to Shelly for being patient
and to his parents for buying him a VIC-20.
Tim and I have been in this industry a long time, in fact, we are at the point in our careers where we have been doing this longer than some of the people we work with have been on this planet. A lot has changed over that time, but one thing has remained constant: OReilly books. Books like DNS and BIND and Learning Perl still sit on our bookshelves, well-worn with heavily marked-up pages. So when we found out that OReilly wanted to publish this book we were thrilled, then a little scared. After all, this is OReillyit has to be right.
We hope this book lives up to the reputation that all of the OReilly authors have fostered over the last 40 years and that it will become as indispensable to our readers as other OReilly books have been to us.
We do want to share a couple of quick notes before you get started. The first is that unless you buy this book the day it is released and get hit by ransomware the next day, a lot of the specifics about various ransomware families mentioned will be outdated. This book is not designed to keep you updated on minute changes in ransomware behavior, instead, it is designed to be a guide for building a strategy to protect you, your family, or the organization you are defending. Use the information to understand the tactics and techniques of ransomware authors and then to take steps to prevent those techniques from being effective.
Secondly, we really want to hear from you. We hope to be able to publish multiple editions of this book until ransomware is no longer a threat. If there are things you like, and especially if there are things you dont, please email us and let us know: allan@allan.org and timjgallo.ransomware@gmail.com . Thank you.
