目安 4分30秒The Rise of Ransomware
Ransomware is malicious software that locks or encrypts a victim's files and demands payment, usually in cryptocurrency, for their release. Once aimed mainly at individuals, attacks now frequently target hospitals, local governments, and manufacturers, whose operations can be paralyzed within minutes. Criminals increasingly steal sensitive data before encrypting it and threaten to publish it, adding pressure on victims to pay. Some groups even rent out their software to other criminals in exchange for a share of the profits, a business model that has allowed people with little technical skill to launch sophisticated attacks.
Whether victims should pay remains controversial. Paying may be the quickest way to restore essential services, such as access to a hospital's patient records, and some organizations conclude that it is cheaper than rebuilding their systems. However, payments provide funding for criminal groups, encouraging further attacks, and offer no guarantee that files will actually be restored or that stolen data will be deleted. For these reasons, many governments advise against paying, and some have debated banning ransom payments altogether, although critics warn that a ban could simply drive payments underground.
Experts emphasize that prevention is far more effective than response. Regularly backing up data and storing copies offline, for example, allows organizations to recover without negotiating with attackers. Keeping software up to date closes the security gaps that criminals commonly exploit. Training staff to recognize suspicious emails is also considered essential, since many attacks begin with a single careless click. Because smaller organizations often lack the resources to implement such measures, some governments now offer free security guidance and support.
リスニング（Part2 文章形式）
目安 2分🎙 In the past, passwords were considered the main line of defense for online accounts. Today, however, security specialists increasingly recommend multi-factor authentication, which requires users to provide a second form of proof, such as a code sent to their phone. Even if criminals obtain a password, they cannot access the account without this additional information. Studies by major technology companies suggest that the method blocks the vast majority of automated attacks. Nevertheless, it is not perfect. Some criminals now trick users into revealing their codes by pretending to be customer support staff, so users must remain cautious.
