How does ransomware attack?
Ransomware (Cryptolocker) is a type of malware that prevents or limits users from accessing their system. This type of malware forces its victims to pay the ransom through certain online payment methods in order to grant access to their systems, or to get their data back.
Ransomware is a growing threat. It is another underhanded method that cybercriminals use to try to separate you from your money. Once this malware is activated, it forces you to pay to get back control of your computer and/or your data. Plain and simple, this is extortion.
