Absolutely. And let me explain. So what WannaCry, that ransomware essentially did, that WannaCry is exploiting a vulnerability, which is a very pervasive vulnerability and then essentially crippling companies. And that's a rude awakening for a lot of companies. Before everybody was focused on APTs and targeted, so okay, they go after a certain number of things. But now today, they can cripple your business and we effectively gave Maersk as an example, which was not a Qualys customer, just to discover today which are the devices, which are vulnerable to WannaCry. Nobody has an idea. So that's where Qualys shines because immediately, we can tell you if you're an existing Qualys customer and we are scanning your entire environment, which we start to do more and more. Then, of course, we will immediately tell you without even having you to search through our Elasticsearch back end, which remember now today, we have indexed, which is absolutely a fantastic engineering feat, 250 billion data points and growing. So immediately in two seconds, we tell you would this is where you are exposed. And now, of course, you've got to go and through ThreatPROTECT, you can even follow through the remediation, so we give you the dashboard, which allows you to not only immediately see everything, where you are exposed, but then follow the remediation, which is as important, of course, as discovering them. So that has been essentially highlighting the unique capability of our scalability and has created the new business. And, of course, as we continue moving more into the IOC and the detection, now it's trying to detect – ransomware is going to be something very interesting at the moment of infection. So this is of course, extension that we are starting to go, that we are starting to build into our platform to go more into the response side. So today, WannaCry, to make the story short, serves us because of our ability to detect vulnerable devices and now, of course, we are going to expand our platform to also being capable of responding if an attack is occurring. But that will take, of course, some time, and I'm not going to give you deadlines here. But that's the direction that we are absolutely taking.
