if you&#8217;ve paid once, hackers believe you&#8217;ll likely pay again<\/li>\n<li>Paying the hackers only fuels their fire to keep infecting more people and more devices for higher paydays<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Ransomware Prevention<\/h4>\n<p>Instead, if you are a victim of ransomware, you should retrieve your files via backups.\u00a0 Better yet, be proactive.\u00a0 Instead of wondering what to do after infection, prevent them from infiltrating the system to begin with.\u00a0 You can do so by taking the following steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Implement a security solution that uses application whitelist technology.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/cart.pcpitstop.com\/go.asp?id=504631\">PC Matic<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/cart.pcpitstop.com\/go.asp?id=504632\">PC Matic Pro<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/cart.pcpitstop.com\/go.asp?id=505009\">PC Matic MSP<\/a> use their own, automated global whitelist to prevent cyber threats from executing &#8212;
