Your Money or Your Data

Business' beware! There seems to be a new trend of malware circulating around the web where it will hold your data for ransom. Just recently Sophos antivirus has dubbed a new Trojan horse "Ransom-A" that will threaten to delete your data every 30 minutes unless you pay up. Both in March and in May of last year, there was a malware that encrypted your data and wanted to exchange the decryption key for money.
