So it is because you guys invaded people’s privacy by having data you don’t even need to operate?
Sounds like a sad excuse.

Sadly this will probably not change unless attacks become so frequent that paying the ransom is more expensive than hiring competent people and teaching them proper opsec.
It’s bound to happen at some point, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

User being phished doesn’t leak the company’s database though.
I think “user” in this case means “employee”. Phishing is by far the most common point of entry.
