Hacker: We locked your systems, we want payment in bitcoin.
Victim: We don't have any bitcoin.
Hacker: Then you better get some.
Victim: We can't, you locked our systems!
Give me your money, I'll buy bitcoin, and sell it back to you so you can pay the ransom.
@@rustyschackleford5800 hello broda can you help me...my effect by ransomware tuid virus
Shouldnt have given them the list, Joe.
Shouldn't have commented and shown your ignorance, James. Ransomware has been going on LONG BEFORE Biden, or Trump, or even Obama. We are just hearing more about it because it's the new buzz story and got worse DURING TRUMP's administration. You really should do your homework before setting your fingers loose on a keyboard.
If you see a ransomware message on your computer saying that it is under attack, your computer may not still be hacked.
Maybe the message is just a bait that popped up when you opened a phishing email or clicked on an advert. But the message has buttons/options such as "make payment" or "decrypt" and clicking on these is what actually causes the ransomware to download or become activated and take hold of your computer.
?and
Remember that guy who got caught by the FBI who tried to get one of the Tesla employees to upload a software in Giga Nevada to ransomware Tesla, But the stupid U.S judge let him off in six months in jail only, it's pathetic🙈. Ransomware should be classified as a terrorist in the U.S and should be prosecuted as such period!!
False flags is all you need to know.
All you actually need to know is that these criminals are hiding out in Russia, they did have the protection of Putin however that seems to be changing.
@@sashaknight7222 state run media has been demonizing Russia with lies since they began dumping US Treasuries shortly after the 2008 mortgage backed security crisis (derivative scam) to free themselves of the US debt enslavement dollar and back their own sovereign currency with precious metals. A prudent measure and a right every country should have without criticism. However, the private central banking cabal that has a strangle hold on the US government and media will have none of it and attacks any nation that attempts to extract themselves from this failing and corrupt debt enslavement monetary system now entering its death throes. If you buy all the Russia demonization over the past 6 years I have mountain property to sell you in Miami.
It would help if companies actually acted on vulnerabilities instead of doing nothing about it for years like Kaseya.
Ransomware is something people far more computer savvy than myself use to make some cash. Shoulda went to school back in my 20's. Oh no, I liked the freedom of working outside in beautiful weather. Now, my body is wrecked making a company 150k (low avg) per day, not even a thank you, let alone compensation. Oh joy...
Stay in school kids...

Criminals you mean
@@FUZionist those are all either things that we do not deserve or things that are bad for the enviorment. I am glad that people are blocking those resources from us. It's for our own good
@@insectbite1714 health care is bad and we don't deserve it? just curious about your take on this.
I would be OK if they attacked Fox, AON, and Newsmax, even the Trump organisation. But they must do it before Smartmatics gets all their money.
Bait
I got hit with one YESTERDAY--a computer ransom-hijack!!
I had about 1,233,424 files on my C drive, all of them threatened to be encrypted forever. If that would have happened, I could not access, move, delete, or open all of them. Even worse--those files would disappear for good--my 0 sector would go away--and my computer would be dead!
I knew what to do - shut down the computer and reboot to stop the ransomware program from completing its payload and causing me permanent damage to the computer. I never gave in to the ransomware hacker and this attitude saved my computer!
I never knew nck mythss1 was this perfect,i doubted him at first but he has proven his professionalism
That's why if you have such secret data then don't have your computers online. Have backups and the stuff online shouldn't be anything that you care about them posting to the public.
That's not realistic for servers to stay offline. For example, databases have to stay online for applications, websites, etc to work and those contain sensitive data. Employee workstations have to be online so they can do their jobs. Many offices connect to their servers through a VPN which goes 9ver the internet.
@@HichigoShirosaki1 They could find a way to keep hackers out they are just too lazy to do so. Their website server could be kept separate and their main computers to run their plant can be kept offline and updated manually. Or at least have backup hard drives ready to go just throw out the hacked ones and install the backups they had no backups so stupid if a hard drive went out they'd be closed for days.
@@chriss4365 Do things the right way and spending money on Security eats into the Profit,
Paying 1 off ransom does not impact the share price, however spending money on security does hit the share price.
If you run a Business, what would you do since you are in business to make a profit, not to do the right thing.
I think Microsoft should be considered culpable for providing Hackers the platform for these attacks.
(the only way that this wouldn't work, is if a country got that hacker's or buyer's backs)
Maybe if the intelligence and military communities weren’t ultimately corrupt, people with competitive computer skills would actually want to do good and work for public entities
It has nothing to do with corruption, the people with the computer skills demand more $$$$ than the Businesses are willing to pay.
@@sashaknight7222 isn’t that the point of corruption, if it wasn’t so rampant people might pass up larger sums of money for a fulfilling career with an honest government I mean that is what public servants are supposed to do
@@kevinjames821
So you think "they might" pass money to the staff, so you still actually believe in trickle down economics. LOL
These are PRIVATE Businesses who are being hit by Ransomware, they have shareholders to please so they have to keep salaries low, paying one of ransom does not impact the share price, while spending money on salaries does.
@@sashaknight7222 in what way does a philosophical belief about the role of public servants, to pass up large salaries in the private sector for the opportunity in a non-corrupt capitalism federal government have virtually anything to do with trickle down economic tax rates? I understand private companies are being hit with ransomware attacks but my entire point is our domestic intelligence agencies have lost potentially great minds due to the infinite corruption in our intelligence communities and perhaps the extra money wouldn’t be needed if the economy had any level of security or generational longevity.
I don’t even understand the logic of arguing about it, you believe it has nothing to do with corruption but corruption is subjective so saying “it has nothing to do with corruption” is your opinion, you can’t declare you have the only correct viewpoint and that it’s not a complex or expansive topic but you have the simple answer and if I don’t agree I must somehow believe in trickle down economic tax rates…where do you make that connection?
@@sashaknight7222 I think you’re confusing “pass up” as in not take a shady ransomware job, where do you get “pass money to the staff,” I’m speaking purely out of a fictitious perspective of a non-corrupt federal government…arguing for the sake of arguing I guess?
If data leak is a concern, there's no guarantee the crooks wont use it as repeat ransom tool. For data releasing, don't anyone keep an off-line backup anymore?
@Bob Richards these private Businesses do not want to go back to that way of working as it's more expensive, and they don't care if the data is leaked after all it's just customer data.
@Bob Richards I am not saying its right, this is just how Business operate.
Business all make risk judgements, however Cyber is little understood at senior level so they under rate the damaged.
For example,
Sony's senior vice president of information security, Jason Spaltro, to point out back in 2007 that "it’s a valid business decision to accept the risk" of a security breach, adding, "I will not invest $10 million to avoid a possible $1 million loss."
How little he understood the actual risk.
This still happens today.
I totally agree they should take it more seriously, however if you actually look at the Share price of Businesses before and after a breach, it does not really impact the Business from a share value point of view, and even the customers still go back to uses these Businesses so we are all to blame.
Cuba disconnected themselves from the Internet… Disconnect Russia from the Internet.

Never negotiate with terrorist.
Experts recommend hiring a skilled security engineer and following their advice.
Jim Browning.
The chart at 1:48 does not support what is being said in the video. Over 50% of the data is simply unexplained????
No matter what we do hackers are going to still get paid🤔
If you have hired a systems engineer or systems administrator. And your network gets jacked by ransomware *and* the data is unrecoverable. Fire your systems engineer. It's a clear sign they have failed on multiple levels and have not done their job.
Speaking as a systems engineer myself. Every time i'm called into disaster recovery for a new customer, it's *always* because the customers network was not built properly.
Or the customer didn’t budget enough money for their security infrastructure. Speaking as a systems engineer I find that to be more the factor. The IT department Can only do what their budget allocates for.
The simple fact is, Private Business want to do things on the cheap.
Watching after getting attacked by ransomware. 🤕🤕😵
Don't click on links in emails. It's hard, but you see the downside here.
(this place I'm located at is clintonpig land and a hacker has gloated about fellow hackers hacking computers for competition, etc etc) (it was a building of rented rooms that he lived at, at 821 West broad Street Bethlehem and probably still lives there or those that do live there know where he's at and or his "business" around it) (he thought I was a soft boy at the time, it was like ten years ago) (this place has/d a Brazil bully live there, a Lord live there, a witch, a socialistpig landlord, a business stiff, a musician, etc and they tried to kick me out-- but luckily I was smarter than it and left before it happened!)
Most victims of ransomware and shit like this are just incompetent.
It's cheaper to pay the ransom instead of paying for Security experts, after all it's only customer data.
@@SteveGillham It's cheaper to pay a ransom then to upgrade the password from Password123?
Or investing in some basic ass Anti-Malware? Like the free version at least? lol
@@Linkolnverse you laugh, but that is how Businesses work, to change the password would require someone to find the weakest password and to put better controls in place to stop people from using weak password, that would eat into the Business profit margins.
@@SteveGillham Enable complex password requirements on your network. Takes about 20 seconds to put a check in that box.
Or call a computer consultantancy company to handle these things for you.
@@eric3434 I know exactly how easy it is, however the Management do not want that barrier for their staff, it slows the Business down which impacts profit.
Anyone else feel this is a little late?
(3:40. The hacker will either use the data or not and in the end they will get caught, or the people who buy or use it from them will get CAUGHT-- forcing them to either talk or get arrested, and or fined.)
The hackers will not get caught if they are given a free pass to attack the west.
@Escaped Away wow, you have really gone far down that conspiracy theories rabbit hole 🤡
WAIT YOU GUYS USED ATOM SMASHER? AAAAAH!
"The United States' military might play a greater role in this 'going forward' ". How?
Who else be getting these fake ur phone been hacked messages while watching phub
coming from cnn I will expect that this is not how ransomware attacks work.
Well it is.
Phishing attacks are the attack vector of choice for Ransomware, send out 100,000 emails someone will bite.
Minimal effort, large payouts.
Just as 2021 was supposed to be better than 2020
This is a segment explaining ransomware. Why are so many conservatives angry?
Cause we are tired of "LIES"!!
i wish i could tell you
It certainly is surprising how many of these people are so angry, all blaming Biden when these are Private Businesses who are falling for Ransomware attack and paying. I thought they did not like Government telling Businesses what to do.
The fact the Biden has tried to help out by putting pressure on Putin to control the criminals within Russia is more than anything Trump did during is term. If you look back, there were 100s of Ransomware attacks during Trump administration and Trump did nothing. Now all of a sudden these people are blaming Biden.
0:55. What a low and over rated ball that he just gave, "phishing emails". Wow. How old.
No doubt. You have to be pretty f'ing slow to get infected with malware of any kind.
The majority of Ransomware starts with Phishing
Lovelyti was talking about this first 🤨
A few alternative media outlets such as America Uncovered, Breaking Points, Tim Pool, Liz Wheeler, Steven Crowder, Candace Owens, etc., etc. Provide more substantial journalism than CNN, MSNBC, NBC, NPR, Axios, AP, or Reuters combined.
and yet here you are watching CNN videos. Go figure

Wrong. Attempting to save a few misguided souls.
@@AllenBooth Whatever.
@@sashaknight7222
At this point what's transpiring is those who are genuinely faithful to the corporate media, are going to pivot themselves against Americans solely for their political beliefs.
These people are literally training people to hate other Americans while bestowing an undeserved sense of superiority.
Listen to the very language and tropes they use. They are intentionally trying to get you to have hysterical hate for other Americans. It's wrong, it's malicious, and the corporate media in the USA needs to be broken up.
That looked like a movie trailer rather than informative news.
well they're using cartoons to propagate kids so that would make sense.
@@thisoldnew4544 and by the looks of the comment section, they really need to dumb it down for the average person.
Never negotiate with Terrorists
So our government is looking at porn sites when they get hit with ransomware?
What! we need some kind of insurance!. We should just be doing this!
There already is Cyber Insurance to cover Ransomware attacks, in fact the majority of the time its the Insurance companies actually paying the Ransom for the Business.
Corruption explaining Corruption, hmmmm ! Interesting 🤔
They got Vision...
These guys ain't kiddin around...
You mean the Avenger!
@@joannefitzpatrick992 Avenger? What u talkin bout?
They had the Russian government protection, they are just criminals
@@SteveGillham word on that
@@anjotheweezky215 Vision was the Avenger that Iron Man created, I don't remember which one it was, I think it was the movie Avengers Infinity War. Anyway what you're talkin about sounds serious and I am not educated on the subject so I do not like to comment on things I am unaware of it was just the first thing that popped into my head when I saw that, didn't know if it was a joke
I'd just pay the ransom... My stuff is worth at least $1.25.
I am sure it is
@@sashaknight7222 LOL thanks.
Jim browning brought me here
Remember when CNN asked "who is 4chan?". For me they lost credibility in talking about tech after that.

Have you not heard of Tumber or Mixers then 🧐
@@SteveGillham yeah, but using a mixer with such large sums of money is extremely difficult, basically impractical. imho

"5 G improves internet connection"
What 5 G actualy does:
It gives greater speed than 4g
how is crypto harder to track? the blockchain is fully public and visible....
have you not heard of tumbler or mixer accounts ?
Hmmm, so this is what Gmail is doing. I have two or three gmail accts. One of them I use sparingly. The other day, I went to check that account to see what emails I had in there. I get this annoying message telling me my account is outdated and I need to update my information. I get TIRED of this routine where EVERYBODY thinks they need my information. I just decided NOT to update. I did think it was very odd that I had not received any mail to that account in some time. I blew it off and just continued on my way elsewhere on the net.
Some time later, I needed to receive an email on that account. I kept waiting and waiting. Finally, I decided to update that account. BINGO AND BADA BING! All of the sudden I had a gazillion emails. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF RANSOM WARE, either you PAY the ransom, which is giving them your 'updated information' or you don't get your emails. ILLEGAL!! Where are the internet police?
Actually had the solutions
I wasted time on all videos untill I meet with him
I'm glad files are back now

This shit is not hard to solve. Take the system offline and go from there. Rollback or find the code and delete it. I did it twice.
Your lack of understanding of how technology works is shocking.
@@sashaknight7222 if you say so but i went to school for programming. i personally have removed encryptions on my own pc from ransomware. its not that hard. take the PC off line and gain access through command prompt and restore from backup. let me guess you have no idea how to use command prompt or use a pc without using windows. you dont need an OS to use a PC or to gain access to it. i gain access to through command lines. not to mention most encryptions can be hacked through brute force strategies
@@sashaknight7222 th-cam.com/video/kJuibb9QaWk/w-d-xo.html
@@butdidwedie5664 modern ransomware done by criminals gangs is impractical to decrypt without a key, it would take 1000s of years to brute force it.
Word of advice, you should never trust a device once it has been infected with malware. Wipe it and install the OS again from a clean source.
And I have 15 years experience as a Cyber Security Consultant, with many years of IT behind me.
The greatest challenge in dealing with Ransomware is getting the Business to take it seriously. Most Businesses would not spend the money on prevention instead they take the gamble in believing they will not get hit.
@@sashaknight7222 when i got rid of wannacry that exactly what i did. after i removed it i copied all the important thing i wanted to keep and ran a program that fills the hard drive multiple time before the reinstall to make sure nothing is left behind and can not be recovered bc it was written over 5x. diskwipe i believe it was.

Thank you Lexogeek for saving my life!
There is only a few ways hackers can get in now of days since i.t. security has advanced, basic knowledge of these few ways will stop hackers from getting in .
haha, you don't have any idea of what you're talking about. a 6th grader with a thumb drive could shut down pretty much anything they wanted to with the right access.
Unfortunately, Businesses do not want to spend the money on protection as it cuts into the profit, and it's only customer data.
@@SteveGillham .. actually businesses do but mainly banks and Governments. America actually holds contest for hackers and those few successful ones are hired by the American government on contract employment. But for the most part you are right most buisnesses do not. Years back, the college's stated I.T security was one of the hottest careers moving forward in which requires a strong knowledge of the hacking measures and how to avoid hackers in day to day operations and training of staff how to help them avoid hackers which is simple . Full time I.T. security requires the specialist to monitor all in that buisness on everything essential online therefore a lot of money being dished out for a position that does not generate income for the company itself so overhead expenses could be high to ad these services to payroll so in that sense, you are correct as buisnesses do not want to pay for it.
I do not see this as a hot career choice but with the way things are going with all the talented hackers commiting crimes on a serious level, there will be some more jobs being created over time in the field but not as much as the college's try to promote.
@@k333rl Complete nonsense. Poorly designed networks are vulnerable. Properly designed networks are not. It's as simple as that.
@@supportyourtroopsathletes6460 I do know how security works having been in the Cyber Industry for over 10 years, I can put in controls that would stop nearly all these types of attacks, or at least slow them down, however after working within many private Businesses, they simply do not want to do the right thing, as it reduces profits.
Business look at all types of risks that could affect their Business, however annoying Ransomware is, it does not ultimately affect the share price, so paying ransomware is a small price to pay in the larger scheme of things.
In Cyber, Crime certainly pays the most. :-o

DNC hackers, got it.
Both the DNC and GOP were simple phishing attacks. Its the quickest way in as there are always normally people too busy to actually check what they are doing.
You forgot Biden's share of the loot.
This is so stupid. Here is the take, Stop opening up strange e-mails. Don't brows the internet with a work computer. If you do have strange email, and want to see what it is, open in a different system off the network. The most important take, educated the work staff so that they do not let it in, cause at the end of the day, it's done due to user error. Stop going on porn strange sites, using your work computer. And, never pay. Never, never pay. All of these things can me fixed, all these malwares, are cake to get rid of from a system. Most times, and simple AVG will clean it and get you going again. Rarely, do you actually need real skill to clean out your system from ransom where, and for gods sake, gets yourselves and IT department, staff it. Business are really letting this aspect of companies fall through the cracks, because they think one IT is enough, get 10, 20 IT pros if you are big company. A function of an IT is to educate staff on what not to do, or problems can occur. The military for hackers, omg. This is a business, just trace the IPs and go after the hackers. Pay FBI to do the work, if it's a big job, if they fail at it, investigate them too. Our country likes to pass this buck and blame others for hacks, or anything that goes wrong, instead of looking in the mirror. We call others dumb, while causing the problems ourselves and just finding someone else to pin it on. Today is Russia, tomorrow it will be someone else. Grow Up children, it's time to leave home and be adults.
