Cybercriminals employ ransomware as a kind of malware (malicious software). When a computer or network is infected with ransomware, the ransomware prevents users from accessing the system and encrypts their data. Cybercriminals hold their victims' data hostage in exchange for ransom money. A vigilant eye and security software are recommended for protection against ransomware infection. Following an infection, victims of malware assaults have three options: they may pay the ransom, attempt to delete the software, or restart the device.

Why captions are vietnamese in your videos, if they would be english, then it will be more helpful.

Its interesting how in some cases and mine as well in poor countries people just pirate som games and in order to do so you have to disable antivirus and all the tools, since microsoft dont want to have any consequences when victim gets a malware and comply against microsoft. So they just say: "disable it un order to play the games you wont or cant pay for. But you couldnt sue us. Also, disabling it is interfiering in system work, so we wont let you to do so, but we understand its impossible to restrict people from doing it and itll be always possibilities to do so no matter what we do. Enjoy ;)". Literally I spend some good amount of time permanently destroying the antivirus since there is an option to disable it but in my case its automatically on after literally 5 seconds. Another reason why I did it is its updates, that just throwing my old pc into junkyard. I cant play because every 30 minutes+-some random amount of seconds they update it and when they do my 13 y.o. pc just being ddosed.
