The majority of ransomware variants are known to spread through enticing emails with malicious attachments. Any of these attachments can include Word documents or other file formats that your company uses frequently. Some, on the other hand, can arrive in a format that is seldom, if ever, used. After that, you should configure your webmail server to prevent those attachments from being sent.Thanks all ~ Anne from www.qlddiamondsecurity.com.au
