I think that you want to move your back-ups off your network to another storage environment for safety. Once the ransomeware is running on your system the backups are vulnerable as well.

Aah, so because SQL Server (and the like) have a file lock on their

This is my experience also. I have seen encrypted DBF files but not SQL (yet). Force users to run backups folks!
Someone on here mentioned they charge users to host backups which is a great idea. This is something I really need to implement.
