came NotPetya in June.\u00a0 Third, was the latest global ransomware attack, Bad Rabbit.\u00a0 This ransomware variant is believed to originate in Russia.\u00a0 However, it quickly spread throughout Ukraine, targeting various transportation systems.\u00a0 Avast also <a href=\"http:\/\/money.cnn.com\/2017\/10\/24\/technology\/bad-rabbit-ransomware-attack\/index.html\">reported <\/a>infections in Poland, South Korea, and the United States.\u00a0 Another security solution, ESET, <a href=\"http:\/\/money.cnn.com\/2017\/10\/24\/technology\/bad-rabbit-ransomware-attack\/index.html\">stated <\/a>they have seen infections in Japan and Bulgaria.<\/p>\n<p>Bad Rabbit is a malicious executable that was included in a fraudulent Adobe Flash Player update.\u00a0 Upon installing this fake update, files were being encrypted.\u00a0 The exact ransom demands have not been released.\u00a0 Although, cyber security experts have encouraged victims not to pay the ransom.\u00a0 Any infected users are encouraged to notify officials of the infection, and restore systems through backup files.\u00a0 Paying the ransom demand will only encourage attacks such as these.\u00a0 Also, there is no guarantee victims will get their files back after paying the ransom.\u00a0 Lastly, paying the ransom makes the victim a target of future attacks.<\/p>\n<h4>Preventing Against These Attacks<\/h4>\n<p>To avoid falling victim of these ransomware attacks, it is encouraged users implement a security solution that uses application whitelist technology, or a default deny approach.\u00a0\u00a0This methodology effectively and efficiently blocks all malicious executables, because the whitelist only allows trusted applications to run.\u00a0 With the use of a whitelist all unknown files, which most security solutions allow to run because of the blacklist methodology, are blocked from executing until proven safe.<\/p>\n<p>PC Matic is able to confirm, no Bad Rabbit infections have infiltrated endpoints using PC Matic, PC Matic Pro or PC Matic MSP.\u00a0 All three variations of PC Matic are able to effectively block ransomware attacks, such as these, because of the application whitelist technology implemented at the core of PC Matic.\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cart.pcpitstop.com\/go.asp?id=504632\">PC Matic Pro<\/a> is available for non-profits, government agencies, educational institutions, and businesses of all sizes.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/cart.pcpitstop.com\/go.asp?id=505009\">PC Matic MSP<\/a> is available for all managed service providers, and <a
