Got a client who's server has been hi-jacked, so their database is pooped.

(5000 bitcoins to unlock it :lol:)

Is it worth getting involved or is it a dead duck ?

Depends on what strain of ransomware they’ve been hit with.

5000 bitcoins? Apparently the hacker isn't really interested in getting paid or the end user is Bill Gates.
