  • Nordic Choice Hotels suffered a major ransomware attack in December 2021.
  • As a direct result of the attack, the hotel chain fast-tracked its CloudReady pilot program.
  • Within 72 hours, the chain converted the PCs of 212 hotels across five countries to Chrome OS.
Windows PCs are popular, especially for ransomware opportunists. That's a big part of why Nordic Choice Hotels decided to abandon Windows.
