In this postgraduate dissertation, the mode of action of a ransomware attack, the method of payment of the attacker to decrypt the affected files on the victim's computer and the creation of a methodology for detecting the attacker were studied.
In the second phase of this project, a Web Application was created using the programming and markup languages PHP, JavaScript, HTML5 & CSS3 and the technology of creating RESTful APIs. This application aims to detect transactions and the "electronic wallet" of the attacker inside the Blockchain. The reason for creating and, consequently, using this particular web application is to properly integrate the Blockchain API with a more user-friendly interface to display all of these transactions involving the potential attacker.
