The article on the differences between ransomware and sextortion at https://www.blackdown.org/ransomware-vs-sextortion/ provided me with valuable information that I had been looking for. It explains in detail how these two types of threats can affect users' security and personal data, as well as what precautions to take to avoid these attacks. I particularly liked the detailed analysis of how ransomware encrypts files and demands money for their recovery, and how sextortion uses personal data for blackmail. The author clearly pointed out the importance of installing reliable antivirus programs, regular updates, and a sensible approach to online security. Also useful were the tips on what to do if you fall into the trap of these threats. The explanation of the legal aspects and the possibility of defending yourself with the help of law enforcement was especially valuable.
