Businesses can't expect claims for theft insurance to be honored if they didn't take reasonable measures (install security cameras, alarms etc... and lock the valuables). How is this different?

Agree. Not arguing about not having insurance.

Just saying that paying the ransom may be the only way out of trouble.
