Ransomware isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a clear risk for organizations that manage critical public records. The Georgia Superior Court Clerks’ Cooperative Authority recently was attacked by Devman. They allegedly stole 500 GB of data and pressured GSCCCA to pay ransom after shutting key record-access services.([comparitech.com](https://www.comparitech.com/news/ransomware-gang-says-it-hacked-georgia-clerks-authority-disrupted-systems/?utm_source=openai)) Stepping back, this teaches three things any business in legal, real estate, or government sectors needs to do now:

• Confirm you have **file-level backups** stored off-site and tested regularly.
• Enforce **network protection** and access controls so one breach doesn’t compromise everything.
• Get **downtime detection** and incident response plans in place so you bounce back fast.

If your business depends on documents, filings, or legal trust, you deserve to feel confident that you won’t be the next story.
