By Pedro Tavares, Editor-in-Chief seguranca-informatica.pt<br />
We are living in an age where ransomware continues to grow and the number of attacks has increased<br />
especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data encryption malware is an emergent threat evolving and<br />
changing its Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) along the time.<br />
In general, data encryption malware so-called ransomware is a type of malware that prevents victims<br />
from accessing their systems and demands ransom payments in order to regain access to the data. The<br />
affected systems include network assets, servers, backups, personal data, and so on.<br />
In early ransomware versions - the 1980s, the ransom paid was paid via snail mail. Today the schema<br />
evolves an order sent via cryptocurrency (bitcoin) and credit card.<br />
These kinds of attacks generally start via email, with social engineering campaigns in place, namely<br />
malspam, malvertising and phishing schemas sent to a huge group of users every day.<br />
