Yeah, I was going to say: the last company I worked for sent their backups off-site on a nightly basis. They were also often requesting old tapes to be pulled in for the next night's delivery/pickup so that they could test against old data.

It would be pretty hard to get your ransomware to encrypt all those offsite backups sitting in a vault somewhere.
