The Dhaka Times Desk As the technology is advancing, so many problems are knocking at the base of the people. One such problem is 'Locky'. Which has become a new fear of the current technology world!
New technologies are constantly being added around the world. But the technologies that have joined the world have also created ever-new threats and problems. After WannaCry, the new fear in the cyber world is 'Locky'. Ransomware is being used to collect cyber ransoms in the same way as WannaCry.
It is known that this virus is spreading through e-mail attachments. This 'Locky' is locking the important files of the computer! Then asking for money to recover those files.
According to a data from the government of our neighboring country India, a total of 2.3 million e-mails are sent in the country. Documents or multimedia files are attached to that mail. If you download that file to your computer, it will be disastrous! Then all necessary files of the computer will be locked. If you want to get these files back, money is being charged. However, warnings have already been issued by the country to prevent 'Lucky' ransomware.
A government warning of the country says, caution should be taken in downloading these attachments from e-mails. It is also mandatory for organizations to have an anti-spam solution.
