CryptoWall, TeslaCrypt and Locky: A Statistical Perspective | Fortinet Blog

It’s been over two weeks since we reported about Locky and predicted that it will be a major player in the ransomware scene. We decided to check our Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) telemetry statistics for CryptoWall, TeslaCrypt and Locky two weeks after (Feb 17th to March 2nd) to see how Locky is doing and where it sits compared to its more seasoned counterparts.
While the statistics cover a short timeframe, it does give some insights not only on Locky’s early operations but also on how these three major ransomware families are affecting users on a global scale, which we intend to share in this post.
