Yes, it is technically possible to build your own ransomware. You can get instructions and tutorials online that explain how to do this step by step. However, this type of activity is illicit and illegal in most countries, so you should use caution when deciding to move forward with this type of endeavor. Additionally, there are no guarantees that building your own ransomware will enable you to make any money.

No, it is not possible to make your own ransomware and use it on unsuspecting people or companies. Developing ransomware is a complex process and the malicious software must comply with legal guidelines in order to be considered an effective malicious tool. Additionally, creating ransomware requires deep technical expertise which most individuals do not possess. Furthermore, authorities are aware of the potential for criminal uses of ransomware and will actively investigate suspicious activity involving cryptoviruses. Thus making your own ransomware can lead to severe consequences.
