Word of the Day: ransomware as a service (RaaS)

Posted: 30 Jul 2021 12:01 PM PDT

Daily updates on the latest technology terms | July 30, 2021
ransomware as a service (RaaS)

Ransomware as a service (RaaS) is the offering of pay-for-use malware. It is created for extortion over stolen or encrypted data, known as ransomware.

The author of the ransomware makes the software available to customers called affiliates, who use the software to hold people's data hostage with little technical skill. The use of RaaS enables affiliates to enter an area of extortion practices that was previously exclusive to the authors themselves.

For the malware author, this business model enables them to scale their earnings from their software with less personal risk than incurred if using it themselves. Offering their software to others removes them from the final crime by having another perform the act of ransom.

Like ransomware itself, RaaS is typically a criminal exercise that is almost always illegal anywhere around the world.

RaaS is all about providing ransomware in a software as a service (SaaS) model. At the top of the organizational hierarchy is the RaaS operator. This is the group that develops the ransomware payload that encrypts user data.

The RaaS operator also operates all back-end infrastructure for running the ransomware campaign. That involves the ransomware code, a portal that enables potential customers to sign up and use the service and customer service to support campaigns. Full-service RaaS operators also handle the ransomware payments -- typically via a cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin -- and provide decryption keys to victims who pay the ransom. In addition, RaaS operators actively advertise their services on different underground forums across the dark web.

There are several different revenue and business models for RaaS. As a SaaS model, RaaS is offered to potential users on a monthly subscription basis, or as a one-time fee. Another common way that RaaS operators work is with an affiliate model. With the affiliate RaaS model, the RaaS operator takes a predetermined percentage of every ransom payout by victims who pay a ransom. Continue reading...

Word of the Day: video conferencing

Posted: 29 Jul 2021 12:01 PM PDT

 
Word of the Day WhatIs.com
Daily updates on the latest technology terms | July 29, 2021
video conferencing

Video conferencing is live, visual connection between two or more remote parties over the internet that simulates a face-to-face meeting. Video conferencing is important because it joins people who would not normally be able to form a face-to-face connection.

At its simplest, video conferencing provides transmission of static images and text between two locations. At its most sophisticated, it provides transmission of full-motion video images and high-quality audio between multiple locations.

In the business world, desktop video conferencing is a core component of unified communications (UC) applications and web conferencing services, while cloud-based virtual meeting room services enable organizations to deploy video conferencing with minimal infrastructure investment.

The video conferencing process can be split into two steps: compression and transfer.

During compression, the webcam and microphone capture analog audiovisual (AV) input. The data collected is in the form of continuous waves of frequencies and amplitudes. These represent the captured sounds, colors, brightness, depth and shades. In order for this data to be transferred over a normal network -- instead of requiring a network with massive bandwidth -- codecs must be used to compress the data into digital packets. This enables the captured AV input to travel faster over broadband or Wi-Fi internet.

During the transfer phase, the digitally compressed data is sent over the digital network to the receiving computer. Once it reaches the endpoint, the codecs decompress the data. The codecs convert it back into analog audio and video. This enables the receiving screen and speakers to correctly view and hear the AV data. Continue reading...

Quote of the Day
