While JavaScript
ransomware is not new to the cybercrime network (see for example this
article about Ransom32), the Emsisoft team recently encountered a new
ransomware variant known as RAA. It exclusively uses JavaScript in order
to encrypt personal files using AES. Just to add a little extra bite,
this ransomware also drops Pony malware (a well-known private
info-stealer).
