The Infection Monkey is capable of simulating a ransomware attack on your
network using a set of configurable behaviors.
## Leaving a README.txt file
Many ransomware packages leave a README.txt file on the victim machine with an
explanation of what has occurred and instructions for paying the attacker.
The Infection Monkey can also leave a README.txt file in the target directory on
the victim machine in order to replicate this behavior. This can be enabled or
disabled by checking the box on the configuration screen. Note that if no
target directory is specified for encryption, the Infection Monkey will not
leave a README.txt file.
<!-- add screenshot highlighting readme option -->
The README.txt file informs the user that a ransomware simulation has taken
place and that they should contact their administrator. The contents of the
file can be found
[here](https://github.com/guardicore/monkey/tree/develop/monkey/infection_monkey/ransomware/ransomware_readme.txt).

simulation will only encrypt files contained in a user-specified directory. If
no directory is specified, no files will be encrypted.
