The Home Office commissioned Ipsos UK to conduct 39 in-depth qualitative interviews with victims of ransomware. This report explores the experiences of different types of victims, individuals and organisations (including businesses, charities, and the public sector). It helps to develop a greater understanding of the range of ransomware victims and the nature and impact of ransomware offences. This research aims to inform and improve law enforcement and policy responses to ransomware and improve the support available to victims.
