Garmin paid millions to resolve ransomware attack

Late last month, Garmin suffered a days-long-outage following a cyber attack. The company did not say what this attack was or how it happened, but reports have suggested that it was a ransomware hack and the GPS tech provider has had to pay a "multi-million dollar ransom" through a third-party company called Arete Incident Response to get back access to its systems and data.
