RANSOMWARE THREATS

 Above all protection. We repeat it for the umpteenth time: “Never click on the links that accompany some emails and that we do not know where they lead”.

Ransomware threats
It is one of the pests that currently affects computers and mobile devices. The infected computers lose most of the data since, if not all of them are the majority, the files are encrypted. From there, a message appears inviting you to pay a ransom in order to return everything to its previous state. This message is not valid, since it is materially impossible to undo what the cybercriminals have done. The only solution left is to format the computer and install all the applications again. It is clear that documents, images, videos, and other personal files will be lost.

To combat ransomware we propose some suggestions, focused on taking measures and, also, on the installation of some other protective tool.

These are our few recommendations:

Protect your computer against possible Ransomware attacks

Many of the criminals who acted (some still continue to act) on the street, stealing bags, robbing them at the point of a knife or with a pistol, looting flats, among other actions, have turned to the Internet. They are now called cybercriminals and base their success on the inability of many network users to protect themselves against their attacks. Anonymous organizations and individuals use deception as a method of capturing the unwary. If one day a message appears on your computer screen indicating that it has been kidnapped and that to use it again you must pay a certain amount of money, do not fall into the trap, you will pay and your computer will remain inaccessible.

Use antivirus to protect against ransomware attacks.

Its primary purpose is to protect important files on the computer, which are necessary for it to function, as well as documents, photographs, videos and the like. Although there is security software installed, an antivirus, it is worth installing, since the application takes care of creating an additional layer of protection.

Avoid malware and ransomware performances

Don't fall for the traps of Ransomware
