Rapid 3.0 ransomware is a file-encoding kind of malicious program, which is often called ransomware. These types of contaminations aren't be taken lightly, as they might result in file loss. It's quite easy to get infected, which only adds to why it's so dangerous. If you have recently opened a weird email attachment, pressed on a dubious advert or downloaded an application advertised on some untrustworthy web page, that's how it infected your system. After it encrypts your files, it will request you to pay a certain amount of money for a decryptor. The sum you are asked to pay is likely to differ depending on the type of file encrypting malware has infiltrated your computer, but should range from $50 to possibly thousands of dollars. No matter how much you're requested to pay, giving into the demands isn't something we advise doing. Consider whether you'll actually get your data back after payment, considering you cannot prevent criminals from just taking your money. If your data still remains encrypted after paying, you would definitely not be the first one. This could easily occur again, so consider buying backup, instead of giving into the demands. From external hard drives to cloud storage, there are plenty of backup options out there, you simply need to choose the one best suiting your needs. For those who did back up files before the malicious software got in, simply terminate Rapid 3.0 ransomware and recover data from where you are keeping them. These threats won't go away any time soon, so you need to be prepared. To keep a device safe, one should always be ready to come across possible threats, becoming familiar with how to avoid them.
