Ransomware attacks on public computer systems are something of an enigma to me? What is so important data-speaking that the public governments pay exorbitant ransoms to criminals to free up the computer systems they are locked out of? Are the computer managers the kind of people that say progrum?
I am not very contemporary on computer systems technology so I am probably about even with managers of computer systems for government on inability to understand all of the stuff needed for state-of-the-art computer security. So why use windows with all of its secret compartment that hackers can subvert and not use an open source operating system such as Debian, Linux in its varieties etc. that have a lot of shareware and are more in keeping with the spirit of open democratic government? If one eliminates the operating system as a swamp for hackers that leaves just the hardware (or something else like the servers) to attack. https://www.linuxmint.com/download.php
Some ransomware did attack Intel cpus and they offered patches for that. Intel is or was designing some kind of new cpu and maybe gpu that doesn't allow its microcode for the chips to be corrupted by the corrupt.
If computer managers back up their data in the cloud a priori they won't lose all of their information if a hacker commanders a John Deer tractor and herds a flock of deer to stomp the city computer system down or whatever (i.e. someone left a window open and rain overnight soaked the system).

Cities, libraries and other government sites probably buy new computers always instead of used computers. That's o.k., yet if a hacker closes down government computers and the data is backed up in the cloud it's a good moment to upgrade the computer system with faster, more expensive cpus, install the free Linux or Debian operating system and download the backed up data from the cloud. Even the new 18 core, 36 thread intel i9 chip is just $1800 or so. Instead of paying ransom charge of $50,000 for nothing, government managers should just upgrade and buy an equal value amount of state-of-the-art faster chips and some older generation ones that are faster than what they have installed in their imprisoned systems.
