The term &#8220;ransomware&#8221; is derived from the English word &#8220;ransom.&#8221; This malware uses various methods to infiltrate systems, such as disguising itself as harmless email attachments from seemingly trustworthy sources like mobile service providers or delivery companies. Attacks can also occur through infected websites. The embedded malicious codes in these attachments or websites, once activated, encrypt the data on the device, preventing the user from accessing important files or the entire system.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>A characteristic feature of ransomware is that it often demands payment in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin to ensure the anonymity of the attackers. However, there is no guarantee that the data will be decrypted after the ransom is paid. Therefore, experts recommend taking preventive measures: installing and regularly updating security software, critically examining email attachments, and routinely backing up data are essential to protect against the threat of ransomware.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Ransomware can be divided into two main types: &#8220;screen lockers,&#8221; which block access to the computer by locking the screen, and &#8220;file encrypters,&#8221; which encrypt files on the device. Some of the most well-known examples of ransomware include Cryptolocker, Wanna Cry, GermanWiper, Ordinypt Wiper, EternalRocks, Locky, and Satana. Cryptolocker, in particular, has gained such notoriety that its name is often used synonymously with ransomware in general. The variety and sophistication of ransomware attacks underscore the importance of proactive protection and awareness of this growing cyber threat.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9d57ba4 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"9d57ba4\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b061eb elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6b061eb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.21.0 - 26-05-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.hws-gruppe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AdobeStock_307328412-1030x687.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-16137\" alt=\"Visualisierung einer Ransomware\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.hws-gruppe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AdobeStock_307328412-1030x687.jpeg 1030w, https:\/\/staging.hws-gruppe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AdobeStock_307328412-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/staging.hws-gruppe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AdobeStock_307328412-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/staging.hws-gruppe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AdobeStock_307328412-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/staging.hws-gruppe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AdobeStock_307328412-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0e04e0e elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0e04e0e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-38c54ba\" data-id=\"38c54ba\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c67247e elementor-widget elementor-widget-template\" data-id=\"c67247e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"template.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-template\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"11220\" class=\"elementor elementor-11220\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2bd72f9a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2bd72f9a\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-124cac61\" data-id=\"124cac61\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-37c332eb e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"37c332eb\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f106c11 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f106c11\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;sticky&quot;:&quot;top&quot;,&quot;sticky_on&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;],&quot;sticky_offset&quot;:96,&quot;sticky_parent&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;sticky_effects_offset&quot;:0}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-74274202 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"74274202\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Contact us<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25b50ac0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"25b50ac0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Do you have any questions about our products and services?
