Ransomware is a type of malicious software designed to block access to a computer system or computer files until a sum of money is paid. Most ransomware variants encrypt the files on the affected computer, making them inaccessible, and demand a ransom payment to restore access.
Examples of Ransomware
CryptoLocker - CyptoLocker botnet is one of the oldest forms of cyber attacks which has been around for the past two decades. The CyptoLocker ransomware came into existence in 2013 when hackers used the original CryptoLocker botnet approach in ransomware.CyptoLocker ransomware is the most destructive form of ransomware since it uses strong encryption algorithms. It is often impossible to decrypt (restore) the Crypto ransomware-infected computer and files without paying the ransom.
WannaCry - WannaCry is the most widely known ransomware variant across the globe. The WannaCry ransomware has infected nearly 125,000 organizations in over 150 countries. Some of the alternative names given to the WannaCry ransomware are WCry or WanaCrypt0r.
Bad Rabbit - Bad Rabbit is another strain of ransomware which has infected organizations across Russia and Eastern Europe. It usually spreads through a fake Adobe Flash update on compromised websites.
Cerber - Cerber is another ransomware variant which targets cloud-based Office 365 users. Millions of Office 365 users have fallen prey to an elaborate phishing campaign carried out by the Cerber ransomware.
Crysis - Crysis is a special type of ransomware which encrypts files on fixed drives, removable drives, and network drives. It spreads through malicious email attachments with double-file extension. It uses strong encryption algorithms making it difficult to decrypt within a fair amount of time.
CryptoWall - CryptoWall is an advanced form of CryptoLocker ransomware. It came into existence since early 2014 after the downfall of the original CryptoLocker variant. Today, there are multiple variants of CryptoWall in existence. It includes CryptoDefense, CryptoBit, CryptoWall 2.0, and CryptoWall 3.0.
GoldenEye - GoldenEye is similar to the infamous Petya ransomware. It spreads through a massive social engineering campaign that targets human resources departments. When a user downloads a GoldenEye-infected file, it silently launches a macro which encrypts files on the victim's computer.
Jigsaw - Jigsaw is one of the most destructive types of ransomware which encrypts and progressively deletes the encrypted files until a ransom is paid. It starts deleting the files one after the other on an hourly basis until the 72-hour mark- when all the remaining files are deleted.
Locky - Locky is another ransomware variant which is designed to lock the victim's computer and prevent them from using it until a ransom is paid. It usually spread through seemingly benign email message disguised as an invoice.When a user opens the email attachment, the invoice gets deleted automatically, and the victim is directed to enable macros to read the document. When the victim enables macros, Locky begins encrypting multiple file types using AES encryption.Apart from the list of ransomware mentioned above, Petya, NotPetya, TeslaCrypt, TorrentLocker, ZCryptor, etc., are some of the other ransomware variants that are well-known for their malicious activities.
