Ransomware Detection and Classification Strategies. (arXiv:2304.04398v1 [cs.CR])

Ransomware uses encryption methods to make data inaccessible to legitimate
users. To date a wide range of ransomware families have been developed and
deployed, causing immense damage to governments, corporations, and private
users. As these cyberthreats multiply, researchers have proposed a range of
ransomware detection and classification schemes. Most of these methods use
advanced machine learning techniques to process and analyze real-world
ransomware binaries and action sequences. Hence this paper presents a survey of
this critical space and classifies existing …
