How to protect yourself from popular ransomware attacks
In the past, people were kidnapped and extorted. Nowadays, ransomware is a type of computer virus that encrypts important files so that the owner of the file cannot use them, and then demands a ransom to get the files back.
                These ransomware, which can spread over networks, enter through security vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows, so you can protect yourself by regularly updating Microsoft’s security patches.
                Microsoft says that the exploit code used by WannaCrypt only affects Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, and older versions of Windows that have not installed the security update patch, so there is no concern for Windows 10 users. Security patches can be updated through Windows Update, and for devices that are not connected to the Internet, such as Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows Server, you can search for Offline Security Patches on the Microsoft Update Catalog page, download them, and install them.
