This week we have seen a lot of CryptConsole variants, Magniber activity, and smaller variants released. Ransomware continues to decline as malware developers move toward more profitable miners and information stealing Trojans. Ransomware is not going away, but is instead moving away from mass malspam campaigns to targeted network attacks where a ransom payment may be more likely.
