BlackFireEye Ransomware
The BlackFireEye Ransomware is an encryption ransomware Trojan that is used to encode the victims' files, to take them hostage. The purpose of threats like the BlackFireEye Ransomware is to force computer users to pay large ransoms after preventing access to the victim's data. The BlackFireEye Ransomware is nearly identical to numerous other encryption ransomware Trojans that have been observed previously, and it is why computer users need to take steps to protect their data from threats like these, which are becoming more prevalent over time.

The BlackFireEye Ransomware uses the AES encryption to make the victim's files inaccessible and will change the files encrypted by its attack by adding the file extension '.jes' to the end of each file's name. The BlackFireEye Ransomware will be delivered to the victim's computer through the use of spam email attachments, often taking the form of Microsoft Word files with damaged embedded macros.
