A new form of ransomware, dubbed HybridPetya, is able to bypass UEFI Secure Boot and can install malware on a system's EFI boot partition. This means that HybridPetya can hold a computer hard drive ransom by preventing it from booting into Windows. It appears the malware is currently in the research phase and has not yet launched publicly.
