I think it will only get worse, as skiddies get access to LLMs. The number of mainstream maintainers being hacked is quite alarming.
Ransomware as most people imagine it is a solved problem. After a close call, my employer invested in ZFS-backed storage. Our recovery time for recovery from accidental deletion went from "days of copying from offsite backups" to just minutes.
The only problem is when people build storage on ancient filesystems that don't support low-cost snapshots.
