I want to believe that while we are still battling to unfold the year in full, still decrypting Monkey test and time virus that has ravaged most android devices, another Killer malware show faces but this time, deadly to all PC users.
Ransom 32 is the latest malware in town … using a Node.js runtime environment running on the NW.js platform to hack into an operating system, then it holds the PC ransom. If you are entangled by this Malware, it will automatically encrypt all your files system until you make a ransom payments.
Those of us that always download via torrent sites, installing browsers extention are more expose to this malware because its just about 20MB delivered as a compressed RAR file, Ransom32 self-extracts and uses WinRAR’s scripting language to configure the malware to launch at system startup
Ransom32 does not affect Mac or Linux users as it relies on the easy execution of an .exe file to achieve its ends.
How Can I Protect my Self From Ransom 32?
==>Make sure you make a constant back up of all your files
==>Do not download any .winrar or zip attachment from unknown source.
==>Also be careful of the browser extensions you install on your browser.
Ransom 32 malware is a kidnapper… beware!
Great piece 👍🏽
