Recovering data to its original location after a Ransomware attack is not recommended for several reasons:
Forensic Analysis: Before recovery, it’s important to analyse the attack vector and assess the full impact before restoring data.
Integrity: Recovered data might be corrupted or altered by the Ransomware, leading to potential data loss or further system issues.
Security: Restoring data to a compromised system without fully eradicating the threat vector could leave vulnerabilities open for future attacks.
Persistence: The original location may still be infected with Ransomware or other malware, which could immediately re-encrypt or damage the recovered data.
