What is Ransomware?

Ransomware is a type of malware that encrypts your files and demands a ransom (often in cryptocurrency) to restore access. Attackers may also threaten to delete or leak your data if you don’t pay.

How Did This Happen?

Your system may have been infected due to:

  • Phishing Emails – Clicking a fake email link or downloading an infected file.
  • Unpatched Software – Attackers exploited vulnerabilities in outdated programs.
  • Compromised Remote Access – Weak or stolen passwords allowed hackers in.
  • Malicious Downloads – Fake software updates or cracked programs contained hidden malware.

What NOT to Do After a Ransomware Attack

  • DO NOT pay the ransom. Payment doesn’t guarantee recovery and only funds more attacks.
  • DO NOT restart your system. This can worsen the encryption or wipe recovery options.
  • DO NOT attempt to remove ransomware yourself. Without professional tools, you may lose critical data.
  • DO NOT ignore the attack. Every second counts in containing the threat and preventing further damage.

What You SHOULD Do Right Now

  • Disconnect infected devices from Wi-Fi and LAN to prevent ransomware from spreading.
  • Take a screenshot or photo of the ransom note—this helps in forensic analysis.
  • Check your backups but DO NOT restore yet—attackers may have compromised them.
  • Contact Sautech’s Cyber Response Team for professional ransomware recovery assistance.
