The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) has released an alert on ransomware threats to U.S. businesses and organizations. Ransomware is a type of malware designed to deny access to a computer system or data until a ransom is paid. Cyber criminals often infect organizations with ransomware through email phishing campaigns or exploiting vulnerabilities in software or Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP).
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) encourages users and administrators to review the IC3 Alert and CISA’s resource page on ransomware for more information on protecting against and responding to ransomware.
