I wonder how many of these would be stopped by getting rid of SMB file shares. Not that that is really an option, of course, but things like OneDrive and Google Drive scan for malware during upload and often don't sync a file (especially a shared file) to a user's device until they specifically click on it. Seems like it would make it a lot harder to move around if you were malware.
(You can't do this if you want on-prem Active Directory or a good open-source cross-platform file sharing service like Samba, which means 90% of companies can't do this. And there are of course actual security things you can do [like blocking hard mapping of network drives in Windows] instead of the cowards way out I speak of.)
