actual description of the ransomware: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bleepingcomputer.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;security&#x2F;ransom32-is-the-first-ransomware-written-in-javascript&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bleepingcomputer.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;security&#x2F;ransom32-is-th...</a><p>I thought it was going to be activex based, but actually it uses NW.js, interesting.<p>edit: actually the new ransomware in the article is this one: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bleepingcomputer.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;security&#x2F;the-new-raa-ransomware-is-created-entirely-using-javascript&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bleepingcomputer.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;security&#x2F;the-new-raa-ra...</a><p>which does use WScript&#x2F;ActiveX in its code so its windows only.
