Ransomware encrypts essential data, locking users out of systems and halting operations until a ransom is paid. Remote code execution (RCE) vulnerabilities, such as the Log4Shell incident in 2021, allow attackers to run malicious code on a remote system without requiring authentication or user interaction.
