I doubt companies care about anything besides profit and that they could care less about gas hoarders. Also, this was just a little taste of havoc that could be done to the economy and society. I'm hoping they lost enough money to knock some sense into them to practice better security and hopefully it makes others think twice about practicing sloppy security. I'm also guessing in the wake of this that ransom attacks will increase in frequency, ransom demands will increase in value, and insurance premiums will increase as well and insurance providers may be forced to do better due diligence about policies that they sell to large corporations to ensure that they don't practice sloppy security. I'm hoping there is some tipping point where it makes financial sense for these large corporations to practice better security. Right now, they gamble that they won't be attacked and so don't invest in security and for the most part they have been rewarded.
