The [email protected] Ransomware is a member of the Crysis Ransomware and, unfortunately, it is a new release, which is not compatible with any of the decryption keys that the authors of the Crysis Ransomware released in 2017. This means that once the [email protected] Ransomware completes its attack on your computer, there isn’t much you can do to recover your files unless you are in possession of a recent file backup that was not harmed during the attack.
The purpose of threats like the [email protected] Ransomware is to encrypt a large portion of the data of its victim and then offer a decryption tool that can be purchased in exchange for some Bitcoins. The authors of the [email protected] Ransomware have not specified the exact amount of money they want to receive, but you can rest assured that they will not agree to help out for less than a few hundred dollars. The threatening file, which is meant to deploy the [email protected] Ransomware, may be propagated via spam e-mail or by exploiting vulnerable remote desktop software and services. Regardless of the infection vector used, the result of the attack is always a large number of encrypted files that will be marked with the ‘.id-
T [email protected] Ransomware may deploy the file ‘FILES ENCRYPTED.txt,’ which contains the ransom note of the attackers after the attack is complete. Their instructions state that the victims can get their data back by messaging [email protected] and then following the instructions they receive. However, the cybercriminals behind the [email protected] Ransomware also make it clear that the recovery of the files will only be a possibility when the victim completes a ransom payment.
It is not advisable to get in touch with the cybercriminals behind the [email protected] Ransomware because sending them money is unlikely to end well for you. Many victims of ransomware have ended up being tricked out of their money, and the crooks behind the [email protected] Ransomware have failed to provide any proof that they are ready to fulfill their part of the deal when they receive the money. The best thing to do if your computer and files have been corrupted by the [email protected] Ransomware is to use a trustworthy anti-malware software suite that can ensure the full removal of the [email protected] Ransomware. When this step is complete, it is recommended to try and use 3rd-party file recovery software since it might, sometimes, be able to restore some of the files damaged by file-encryption Trojans.
