A couple of thoughts. 1 - We are seeing a lot of small and medium-size businesses being dumped on extortion sites. I doubt that this is happening because these companies are better prepared to deal with ransomware. Likely, they just don't feel they have the funds to deal with the incident. (I hope I'm wrong.) 2 - Whatever the ransomware operators are making from the victims, they are also auctioning off at least some of the data they are stealing for additional profit.
