When unaware individuals access dangerous or compromised websites, ransomware can be downloaded onto their devices. It might also be delivered as a payload that other malware drops or downloads. Some ransomware is sent as an attachment in spam emails and is downloaded from malicious websites via malvertisements, or dropped onto weak systems using exploit kits. Attacks using ransomware can take on a variety of forms and dimensions. The attack vector has a significant impact on the kinds of ransomware that are employed.
