Ransomware is a type of malicious software that infects a computer, encrypts its data, and then demands a ransom payment in order to regain access to the data. It is one of the most common types of cyber-attack and is used by criminals to extort money from organizations and individuals. Ransomware is often spread through malicious email attachments and links, and can be used to hold data hostage and demand a ransom payment in exchange for its release.
