I'm a little curious what the warning means by "a ransomware pop up". According to Checkpoint and Sophos, Ryuk just leaves ransom notes in text files after operating.

Hmmmm, I wonder what anti virus they use internally. I used to work in IT as a System Admin and got hit with a Crytolocker Virus back in the day when they were new. I’ve been very focused on IT Security and Backup since then.
If you’re looking to protect your servers, VM’s and clients I would recommend ESET as an Antivirus (the only company who has consistently passed VB100 tests and still participates) and use a Synology NAS with their Active Backup for Business suite, amazingly it’s free and it supports byte based backups, snapshots and Data Deduplication (saves an average of 25% for me).

Verint... /facepalm, you gotta keep those APT's in check especially if it was attacking internal machines.
All I know about Verint is those old wireless Smart Site transmitters/receivers...glad those days are over. Have not used them since.
