Deep Dive: How Ransomware Actually Spreads

Ransomware doesn’t just appear out of nowhere—it spreads through phishing emails, malicious downloads, compromised websites, and even unsecured remote‑access tools. Once inside a system, it quietly scans for documents, network shares, and backups before encrypting everything it can reach.

How to stay safe: Keep your software updated, avoid opening unexpected attachments, and maintain offline or cloud‑isolated backups. These steps dramatically reduce the impact of an attack.
