The emergence of partial encryption as a strategy to make cybercrime even more profitable is a concerning trend that has the potential to significantly impact organizations and individuals alike. While traditional ransomware attacks involve encrypting all of a victim's files, making them inaccessible until a ransom is paid, partial encryption selectively encrypts only a portion of the data. This approach offers several advantages for cybercriminals, making it an attractive option for increasing their profits.

Encryption is a tried-and-true strategy for malware actors. Malware within the victims’ systems leaves their data in place but completely inaccessible. Attackers then demand a price to unlock the data so that victims can resume business as usual. In a second-tier strategy, in the event that victims refuse to pay, attackers can still make money by selling the compromised data.
