Ensuring You Are Fully Protected

What is Ransomware? and Why Should it Concern Me?

Ransomware is one of today’s most destructive security threats: dangerous for individuals and highly profitable for attackers.

As increasingly powerful strains emerge—Phobos, MedusaLocker, and Leakware being among the most dangerous at the time of writing—it is essential to understand how ransomware attacks work and how you can protect yourself.

Ransomware is malicious software that encrypts files on your computer or locks your device and demands a ransom in exchange for decryption.

Ransomware spreads through

• Phishing attacks

• Infected websites

• Other methods of hacking

Ransomware hackers often demand that a ransom is paid, and there’s no guarantee that paying will get your files decrypted.

How Do I Know If I’ve Been Attacked?

The warning is usually unmistakable: when you turn on your computer, a message states that your files—including photos and documents—have been locked and cannot be accessed.

How Can I Regain Access To My Computer and Files?

Unfortunately, many people cannot regain access to their data after an attack. Their files remain locked, and even paying the ransom may not restore access.

Why Proactive Protection Matters

Some internet security products can remove the infection, but your files may still remain locked and inaccessible. Effective protection therefore needs to address both the malware and file recovery.

With Total Internet Security, the infection is removed and you can roll back your files to a version saved before they were infected.

Total Internet Security also includes a guarantee: if it cannot remove the infection automatically, we will remove it free of charge.*
