What do crypto-ransomware attacks do, and how are they different from other types of ransomware?
Crypto-ransomware attacks encrypt files and data on a victim’s computer and demand a ransom in exchange for the decryption key. They are different from other types of ransomware because they specifically target the encryption of data, making it inaccessible to the victim until the ransom is paid.
