# RansomwarePython-PoC

Ransomware is a type of malicious software (malware) designed to block access to a computer system, its files, or its data until a sum of money (ransom) is paid. It often encrypts files or locks systems, making them inaccessible to the user. 


This is a Ransomware Simulation in Python. It encrypts and decrypts the data (i.e. either a txt or png file) using a predefined key. If there is no key, encryption and decryption cannot be performed.

 Components:



 Seperate Python Files for Encrypting and Decrpting the PNG and TXT Files. 

 Key File (Stores the key used for encrypting and decrypting the data) 

 TXT File (Sample Text File) 

 PythonLogo File (Sample PNG)
