Basically these fuckers hijack your computer, encrypt various data files, and then demand payments so you get the decryption key. If you don’t, you’re fucked and the data is useless as it’s scrambled eggs.

We are going to see a lot more of this kind of attack, because it’s highly effective at disrupting business/govt/personal functions - and just enough people will pay the ransom to get their software back.

Check the syntax of that text and draw your own conclusions as to who’s running this.

‘But you have not so enough time?’ Well, howdy, Tovarich.
