Through the dark web, anyone can pay a subscription and access tools that lock systems and hijack data in exchange for a ransom.<\/p><p data-start=\"1741\" data-end=\"2017\">Unlike traditional ransomware, where the attacker had to have advanced technical knowledge, with RaaS criminals simply rent the software.

The difference is that here we are talking about <strong data-start=\"414\" data-end=\"478\">cybercrime packaged as a ready-to-use service<\/strong>.<\/p><p data-start=\"483\" data-end=\"850\">In their early days, more than a decade ago, ransomware attacks were only executed by cybercriminals with high technical expertise. They developed the malicious code themselves, searched for vulnerabilities, distributed the malware and managed the ransom payments. This limited the scope of the attacks, because it required a lot of time and resources.<\/p><p data-start=\"852\" data-end=\"1152\">With the rise of the <strong data-start=\"870\" data-end=\"882\">dark web<\/strong> and cryptocurrencies, the equation changed. Ransomware developers saw an opportunity: to create easy-to-use platforms where anyone, even without advanced skills, could become an attacker in exchange for payment.
