Weekly Security Tech Bytes
This week we are going to talk about RANSOMWARE a deadly virus threat, as part of our routine Security bytes...
Ransomware is a form of malware that gives criminals the ability to lock a computer from a remote location - then displays a pop-up window informing the owner that it will not be unlocked until a sum of money is paid. In some cases, the only usable part of the computer is the number keypad to enter a PIN to enable payment to the criminals. The best-known variety of ransomware in recent times is called CryptoLocker.
