Malware targets students

Before the siege and the TFE were handed over, the files on the students’ computers were more precious than ever. Also, malicious people understood it well. According to the specialty site BleepingComputer, a “ransomware” is currently in circulation and targets specific students, but also the general public.

As a reminder, “ransomware” is malicious software that encrypts files on a victim’s computer and then asks for a ransom (usually cryptocurrency) to open them. In this case, the requested amount can go up to $ 2600 or 7 2472. Even more so if the user decides to wait a few days for payment.
