  • Harmful programs that encrypt the computer's files completely; the attacker then demands a money payment for the decryption key.
  • Entry points: an attachment opened from an unknown sender, a fake installer, or an un-patched vulnerability.
  • Prevention as laid down in the syllabus: keep software updated, never open unknown attachments, and take periodic backups that are stored independently (offline or in the cloud with versioning), so the machine can be restored without paying.
