Bitcoin is the payment of choice when it comes to ransomware demands. Why is that? Alagen’s Sr. Security Consultant Tom LeNeave explains how the anonymity of this form of payment makes it the most common choice of cyber criminals.
Highlights:
– Bitcoin is a method of payment that can anonymize the recipient.
– When you pay a ransom via bitcoin, law enforcement won’t be able to trace the attacker.
