AI overview
Ransomware is malware that locks up your personal data by encrypting it, with criminals demanding payment to restore your access. It matters because attackers use hard-to-trace digital currencies like Bitcoin to collect ransoms, which makes it difficult for law enforcement to catch them, though sometimes victims can recover their files without paying if the criminals make mistakes.
