Cyber criminals have proven they have no loyalty to anything but making money. If one type of attack
            stops proving financially viable, they try another and another until they’ve tried anything that connects to
            the  internet.  All  cyber defenders  can  do  is keep  improving  defenses,  plugging  vulnerabilities  and
            preparing for an inevitable successful attack. If you do all three, you may get a little luck. That seems to
            be what has happened in 2018. At least, so far.
