Ransomware is a malicious software that blocks access to a computer system or data, usually by encrypting it, until the victim pays a fee to the attacker. In many cases, the ransom demand comes with a deadline. If the victim doesn’t pay in time, the data is gone forever. Here is how you can protect yourself from ransomware attacks:
- Protect your email against ransomware – Email phishing and spam are the main way that ransomware is distributed. Secure Email Gateways with targeted attack protection are crucial for detecting and blocking malicious emails that deliver ransomware.
- Protect your mobile devices against ransomware – Use mobile attack products along with mobile device management tools to analyze applications on devices and immediately alert you on any application that may compromise the safety of your device.
- Protect your web surfing against ransomware – Secure web gateways can scan users’ web surfing traffic to identify malicious web ads that might lead them to ransomware.
