It was able to block and kill the ransomware quickly where only ONE honeypot file was encrypted and no legitimate files on the system were affected.
It was also able to kill the ransomware before it had a chance to add any startup entries so the system could be rebooted and cleaned if needed (but shutting down and cleaning ransomware in an offline state is always preferred and highly recommended).
