2011 - The renaissance of Ransomware - The backgrounds
  Everything moves onward and, sadly for you and the other untold millions of honest Internet users, the Malware industry is no exception to this. What began as only a handful of Viruses has developed over time into vast numbers of Trojans, Worms, Phishing attacks and many other types of criminal approaches that endanger the security of your data and also your wallet. One of these has the somewhat strange name of "Ransomware" and is unfortunately making a successful comeback in 2011. This is reason enough for us to describe this relatively unknown category of Malware in more detail and show you how to recognize and protect yourself from this menace.
