The computer automatically downloads the ransomware and needs to pay "ransom"?It's the disaster that I didn't have anti -virus software

"Cyber ​​security is the people, and network security depends on the people." In early August this year, the Panyu Network Police received a case of harm to the network. When a staff member of Panyu uses a computer to browse the website, I clicked on the unknown website and automatically downloaded the ransomware. Then the virus generates a ransom letter after the operation is running, which requires users to pay "ransom" such as Bitcoin to get the key.

Police and technicians checked the computer virus at the scene

After receiving the report, the Panyu Network Police immediately joined the technical support unit to the scene to deal with it. After inspection, the computer involved units did not patch the system and did not turn on the firewall, and there were potential network security hazards, which caused the virus and security threats that could not effectively intercept the network. Later, the processing measures such as timely disconnection and killing computer viruses taken by the net police were quickly and effective, and eventually prevented the virus from spreading further and successfully avoiding other serious consequences such as corporate data leakage.

Online police reminder: Cyber ​​security cannot be ignored. When using a computer in life, you must download the anti -virus software and firewalls in time and upgrade the virus library regularly; choose a browser and email client device that uses relatively easy to use; do not click on any unknown pop -up window or link; Do not assemble unnecessary website plug -in; hackers attack, destroy computer systems, infringe on citizens' personal information, and spread harmful information are all harmful network behaviors.
