Introduction to Ransomware
Ransomware is a type of malicious software designed to block access to a computer system or data until a sum of money is paid.
How Ransomware Works
Ransomware typically encrypts the victim's files, making them inaccessible, and demands payment in exchange for the decryption key.
Protecting Against Ransomware
- Keep your software up to date
- Use strong, unique passwords
- Be cautious of email attachments and links
