Biden Tells Putin To Crackdown On Ransomware. What Are The Odds He Will?

At their summit in Geneva on Wednesday, President Biden told Russian leader Vladimir Putin that the U.S. would strike back if it keeps getting hit with cyber attacks. "Responsible countries need to take action against criminals who conduct ransomware activities on their territory," Biden said.
