Ransomware-A Growing Menace
Ransomware is a growing menace facing worldwide computer users, especially in North America and Europe. Ransomware that locks a computer and uses law enforcement imagery to intimidate victims has spread from Eastern Europe to Western Europe, the United States, and Canada over the past year. This malware is highly profitable, with as many as 2.9 percent of compromised users paying out. An investigation into one of the smaller players in this scam identified 68,000 compromised computers in just one month, which could have resulted in victims being defrauded of up to $400,000 USD. And a conservative estimate is over $5 million dollars a year extorted from victims due to ransomware infections. However, the real number is likely much higher.
