It was so ####ing jaw dropping moronic.
A company the size of Suncor has to have immutable offsite backups of critical systems, or there has been complacency and neglect for a long, long time. Ransomware is not a new concept.

Or there was complacency and neglect in the time to detect the compromise, and the immutable backups got impacted.
