Encrypting ransomware and non-encrypting ransomware is the type of ransomware that harms your computer system badly.
Encrypting ransomware as like it's name, it encrypts the user computer systems file or program and forced the user to pay money as ransom to decrypt the files of the system.The files are encrypted by using strong hashing algorithm so it take so much time to break them.That's why computer user have to pay ransom to get the access of their computer and obtaining unlock key.
Non-Encrypting ransomware blocks the access of computer system to users and if they try to access their computer,then it shows irritating message. It is less harmful as compared to encrypting ransomware and user can solve this issue by taking backup of important files or reinstalling the operating system
