Over Half of UK Malicious Files were Ransomware in 2015
Reported by infosecurity-magazine.com
Over half (54%) of all malware targeting UK users in 2015 contained some form of ransomware, according to worrying statistics from Bitdefender.
The security vendor analyzed data from the year only to find the global ransomware epidemic particularly virulent in Blighty.
Nearly one in 10 (9.1%) of all ransomware infected emails worldwide were apparently headed for UK users before Bitdefender intercepted them.
