As the technology in the world is advancing, so are the threats that it can face. As time goes on, the threats to technology and everyone/everything that makes use of it is increasing.

Ransomware is a type of malware that blocks access to a system and threatens to release important data unless a ransom is paid (hence the name). The ransomware only releases the system if an amount is paid to the perpetrator, and will threaten to delete or leak the data if the ransom is not paid. In 2022, ransomware attacks increased from the previous year and that might be the trends followed this year too. Ransomwares are becoming more common these days resulting in cybersecurity experts having to be extra vigilant to protect their systems from such attacks. Although the time it takes to detect a ransomware in a system has decreased over the years, there is still much work to be done before companies are truly safe from this threat.
