Ransomware is a new way of hacking. This is a crypto virology malware found by the modern hackers. The term ransom is defined as some money demanded for the release of captives, just like this definition, the hackers demand some amount to the victim and only after the victim pays the amount,the hackers return the data of the victim.
Let us see deeply about Ransomware in Hash Info #ransomware
Ransomware firstly attacked across America and now it attacks many countries in the world. The hackers who implement ransomware do not pin point out a person and attack them, they normally through a net and some people individually fall on that net.
OK, How the Ransomware attack people and how the hackers demand them?
Let us see
In previous days hacking is a technique of stealing some files or making some changes in the files of the victim’s pc, mobiles etc. and then hackers demand something to the victim and then return or clear the things. This normally happens, but ransomware is little different, in this 4 process happens after attack:Encryption→Demand→Payment→Decryption.
In this, the files are inside victims pc, mobiles etc. but the difficulty is that the victim can’t access them because the hackers encrypt the files, data, information of the victim. Encryption is a process of converting one type of file, data, information into another type of codes. For example in victims pc if data is stored as “ABCD” then it is encrypted as “$@!5”, in this example data is encrypted like:Aas$,Bis@, Cas!, D as 5. Just think why the data is encrypted like this, because if the data is encrypted like “01000001 01000010 01000011 01000100” then what will happen, technical people can understand that the data is encrypted as binary values so they can easily decrypt the data, just for this reason hackers have encrypted like this. Because it is too tough for normal, technical and even hacking people also. Sometimes new hackers do this and they may forget the codes thus, most of the time hacked files not reach victim 100%.
After encrypting data, file etc., hackers make some demands to the victim. Demands made by hackers to the victim is like “pay this amount to decrypt victim’s files with some codes” and they ask the victim to pay through Bitcoin because in bitcoin we won’t know where the amount get transferred, so the hackers demand the victim to pay through bitcoin. Bitcoin is nothing but digital currency which is not visible to humans eye and we won’t use it by our hand and bitcoin is like mining and investing. Day to day value of bit coin may be increase or decrease.
The victim have to pay bitcoins that the hackers demand, the victim have to pay through bitcoin only. After paying the amount the hackers provide decrypting codes to the victim and the victim can decrypt the files and use it normally. In this we can’t make sure that all the files gets corrected because sometimes hackers only give code to decrypt some files only, so we can’t trust hackers. There is another possibility that hackers can again encrypt your files when they need. It is bad for us.
After these three process data, files etc. of the victim gets decrypted. Decryption is nothing but the opposite of encryption. For example if the data is encrypted as “$@!5” it can be decrypted as “ABCD”. And these encryption decryption process is used for security purpose like message passing in military, our mobiles etc. but now a day it fails to secure us from hackers.
The process of ransomware is over, Let us see how the victim gets attacked by ransomware.
This is nothing but they include the hacking files with extensions like .exe, .rar etc. with the cracked, compressed and non-authorized free softwares. Let’s think about something, is it the mistakes of hackers? No, the mistake is not on hackers, mistakes are on people. Because they do things like downloading cracked, compressed and non-authorized softwares. For example some softwares like adobe, filmora and etc. are not open source softwares, they are payable softwares but more people in our society don’t want to pay and download the software’s so they try to download and install these types of softwares. While downloading and installing, these people won’t see what types of files get installed and downloaded. When the people download it, the hackers hack their systems using programmed files.
Ok, What is the solution to be secure from hackers?
Of course there is a solution to be secure from hackers. First, don’t download untrusted, cracked, compressed and unauthorized files. Second, use and update anti-malware software because they alert us if any malware is found. In this world there are many open source and secured softwares like android studio, java and etc. please use that type of software. Think about one thing, in a mobile we are installing an alarm app, after installing it asks us permission to access our mobile contact, photos, multimedia etc. think that why an alarm app should ask us to access our contacts, photos and etc. some people won’t think about this and they’ll give access to all.
Please think about the app and which things it ask access to, is there any relation between the app and the access it asks? Just think and give access. It is best to use external storages like external hard disk and backup our files to that disk by this if hackers hacked our files we can use the needed files from external disk with other computers. These are some solutions to secure us from hackers.
