Acerca de este título
What is ransomware?
Ransomware is a type of malicious software, or malware, that encrypts data on a computer making it unusable. A malicious cyber criminal holds the data hostage until the ransom is paid. If the ransom is not paid, the victim's data remains unavailable. Cyber criminals may also pressure victims to pay the ransom by threatening to destroy the victim's data or to release it to the public.
Government efforts to combat ransomware
While ransomware attacks impact all sectors, the federal government is particularly concerned about the impact of ransomware on the networks of state, local, tribal, territorial governments, municipalities, police and fire departments, hospitals, and other critical infrastructure. These types of attacks can delay a police or fire department's response to an emergency or prevent a hospital from accessing life-saving equipment. To combat this threat, the NCIJTF has convened an interagency group of subject matter experts to educate the public on ways to prevent ransomware attacks, to improve law enforcement coordination and response, and to enable and sequence whole-of-government actions that impose consequences against the criminals engaged in this malicious activity.
