What if I become a victim of ransomware?

Report the matter to the police. Paying the ransom is never recommended as it does not guarantee that you will be able to decrypt your files. When you pay the ransom, it proves to the cybercriminals that the ransomware is effective and they will continue their activity. In some cases, paying the ransom can make you a target for more malware attacks. The portal www.nomoreransom.org may also have the decryption key to restore your files.
