Combating Cybercrime: A Growing Trend Malvertising and Ransomware
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Malware developers trick users to download their malware. By studying how Malvertising occurs, how sites are tricked and how to prevent it, one can better understand Malvertising. People across the globe are subjected to extortion on a very large scale. Ransomware is modern and technology enabled way of extortion. Ransomware stops you from using your system or device and holds your system/device or files for ransom. The present paper covers the essential discussion of Malware, Malvertising and the attack methods used to distribute malicious advertisements and also discusses Ransomware all round i.e. What is it? What are various forms of it? How it works? How to prevent it? The paper gives some preventive measures for Malvertising and Ransomware.
