Context
InfinityGroup notes that Rapid Ransomware, unlike regular Ransomware, stays active on the computer after initially encrypting the systems and also encrypts any new files that are created. It does this by creating auto-runs that are designed to launch the ransomware and display the ransom note every time the infected system is started.
