Recently, an update of the infamous CryptoWall ransomware (or cryptoware) was released - you can read more about that particular ransomwere here: CryptoWall 4.0 released with new Features such as Encrypted File Names
Additionally, another ransomware variant has made a return, read more about that one here:
“Offline” Ransomware Encrypts Your Data without C&C Communication
And let's not forget about this one either: Chimera Ransomware focuses on business computers
Did I mention yet there's ransomware for Linux as well? Have a look at Linux.Encoder.1 while you're at it.
... But wait, there's more! You've guessed it, yet another ransomware variant has returned. I wonder what's going on these days, the (cyber)criminals seem to get even more competitive.
Lawrence Abrams over at Bleeping Computer recently wrote an article about the variant we have here as well, as we have caught an updated variant of Poshcoder or Poshkoder or Power Worm:
