"Science" network ransom comes, what should I do?

A new black industry on "China Well -off" is entering the explosive period -network ransom. The United States is the country with the worst ransom from the world. In March 2021, CNA, the largest insurance company in the United States, was extorted and finally paid $ 40 million in ransom; in 2021, the laptop production giant, Guangda, was extorted, MacBook's engineering drawing was stolen and was extorted by 50 million US dollars; in May 2021, in May 2021, The largest oil pipeline operator in the United States was extorted, and the oil transportation pipeline was forced to close, causing the US government to announce an emergency state, and finally paid 97 Bitcoin, about $ 5 million at the time. The culprit that leads to the surge in ransom payment this year is two million dollars of extortion, and the initiatives are Quantum Locker and Lockbit 2.0. The former has risen rapidly, and the latter is the most active ransomware gang on the double extortion leak websites so far this year. Most of the ransomware is installed in the form of fishing mail and fishing URL. Some hackers said that even if the confidential system has achieved the top enterprise, it is easy to be broken. As long as you throw a few large -capacity U disks at the door of their company, it won't be two days later, the ransomware you make is successfully installed into the computer in the company's office area. Because people's curiosity is too strong, I picked up a 256GB U disk, and I couldn't help but insert it to the computer and see what there was. The most common network ransom is like this: When you turn on the computer and find that the icons on the screen can not be opened, and any one pops up a dialog box, telling you that the computer has been locked, and you need to remit on how many Bitcoin to a address. Will help you unlock. Or tell you that your database has been copied away. Please pay how much ransom from one day. If you do not receive it, you will auction these data on the dark network. The outbreak of network rains has formed a black industry that is similar to drugs, smuggling, and smuggling in the traditional world, and the scale will also expand rapidly. Soon after, it may become a global enemy. The three external conditions of the Internet ransom from obscure to the outbreak -the digitalization of the industry, the development of the virtual currency, and the currency of the epidemic situation. The deeper the digital enterprises, the more tendency to pay the ransom after being ransom. After all, the loss brought by the long -term stop work is greater. Today, more than half of the companies will agree to pay the ransom to solve the problem. In other words, the deeper the digitalization of the industry, the heavier the injury to the Internet. Although Chinese companies have not been stared at today, the digitalization of the industry is a major trend. It has no borders by extortion. As long as the conditions are met, it will happen sooner or later. We have to be vigilant. In 2020 and 2021, the total amount of ransom payment through cryptocurrency was doubled. It was about 110 million in 2020, and about 350 million in 2021, accounting for about 7%of the total cryptocurrency transaction amount. In 2020, Bitcoin entered a new volume, and the entry of Wall Street Financial Group made the currency value rise sharply, which truly became a mainstream international investment product. Even the tuition fees of many well -known universities and the houses of real estate companies can be paid with Bitcoin. Such anonymous and convenient payment means is already a must -choose way for online ransom. The abuse of global currencies has increased the price expectations in the hearts of hackers. After the epidemic began, many countries were sending money to the people at home and subsidizing the factory. In the past two years, there have been so many additional currencies, and the prices of all commodities around the world have skyrocketed, and the prices of virtual currencies have risen hundreds of thousands of times. This also stimulates the amount of ransom. The ransom incident that occurred in 2021 was 800,000 US dollars and a maximum of $ 70 million. How to prevent network extortion? Individual or company stores important information on the cloud server, can it solve the problem of network extortion? Is it necessary to strengthen supervision and aggravate sanctions? Simply put, cloud services do not solve the problem of network ransom, and the effect of strengthening supervision and aggravating punishment may also be very weak. Now, except for giant companies to build their own cloud service network, more than 95%of small and medium -sized enterprises' servers are already on the cloud, and few companies set up servers themselves. In fact, many domestic institutions have been extorted, and they are solved through ransom. Some companies choose not to pay the ransom, but the thief does not go empty. Since you do not plan to pay the ransom, the stolen data is sold on the dark network. This time, they are not busy. If you want to solve this problem, you can only rely on the change of encryption technology or the change of storage technology. Now is the stage of "one foot tall, one feet of magic", we look forward to the day of the day when "Tao Ten Top".
