Maybe you're curious about how much last June's global NotPetya ransomware attacks cost some of the hardest hit companies? Here's one data point: A recent estimate by Verisk Analytics' Property Claim Services (via Reuters ) put the figure at a whopping $275 million for insurers covering U.S. pharmaceutical giant Merck 's loss. Merck hasn't said how much the cyber attack actually cost the $40 billion company, which turned a $5.7 billion profit in 2016, in uninsured losses. If Verisk's figures (the Jersey City, N.J. firm is a data analytics risk assessment specialist) are within reason, the $275 million downside amounts to .7 percent of last year's revenue and slightly less than five percent of its net income. Neither number need be off-handedly dismissed owing to Merck's size.
