In
order to make scams more believable, ransomware have started using the browsing
histories from infected computers.
Abney and Associates IT research,
ransomware is a specific type of malicious software that holds a computer and
its contents virtually hostage. This malware acts as a means to perpetuate
extortion. Attackers who use malware do so with the goal of forcing victims to
pay money to regain access to their own files. After the money has been
received, the attacker provides the victim with a code that can restore the
system back to normal.
Viruses that can encrypt files and withhold them from their
rightful owners have also been called cryptoviruses, cryptoworms and
cryptotrojans. They have become increasingly popular. Ways that ransomware can
infiltrate a computer system are similar to those of the average computer worm.
Ransomware can enter through an infected email or network vulnerability. They
can also make their way onto the computers of unsuspecting victims by way of
search engine activities, infected web advertisements and automatic Internet
downloads.
