Ransomware: protegendo sua empresa e clientes em um mundo digital

Abstract

In the current scenario, where the internet and its resources are present in the daily lives of individuals, it is essential to acquire knowledge and apply methods of protection against cyber attacks. This study aims to explore the challenges faced in the context of cybersecurity, with a specific focus on ransomware attacks. To support the research, a comprehensive theoretical review was conducted, addressing relevant topics such as the digital environment, the General Data Protection Law (LGPD), cybersecurity, ransomware, and security measures. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected through a Google form administered to companies and individuals. The obtained responses provided a detailed insight into the awareness and security practices adopted regarding ransomware. In addition to the research, a blog was developed as an integral part of this work. The blog was built using modern web development technologies and aims to disseminate the obtained results. This study contributes to the advancement of knowledge in the field of cybersecurity, as the results and shared information provide valuable insights and encourage the adoption of effective protection measures against ransomware and other cyber threats.
