Which of the following is NOT a feature of blocking ransomware? A. A message on the user’s screen appears pretending to be from a reputable third party.
B. It prevents a user from using their computer in a normal fashion.
C. It can be defeated by a double power cycle.
D. It is the earliest form of ransomware.
The correct answer is D. It is the earliest form of ransomware.
Explanation: Blocking ransomware typically functions by restricting access to a user’s computer, displaying deceptive messages, and sometimes being resolved through specific technical methods. However, the statement that it represents the earliest form of ransomware does not accurately describe a feature of blocking ransomware, as there have been various forms and evolutions of ransomware throughout its history.
