A Complete Study on Malware Types and Detecting Ransomware Using API Calls

Due to advancement in technology, cybersecurity attacks are increasing day by day. So, to secure the data and information, Malware analysis is introduced as a new methodology which is the process of understanding the behavior and purpose of a suspicious file or URL. The output of the analysis helps in the detection and mitigation of the potential threat. This novel solution is based on cybersecurity, which can be used in window applications, File scans, URL scans, and link scans. This paper describes different types of malwares and a solution for securing the data by detecting ransomware using API calls.
