Malware researchers have recently detected a new ransomware infection. They have named it Paradise Ransomware because it encrypts files and appends .paradise to all of them. It is not spread actively yet, but we have still decided to write an article about it because it might become a prevalent threat in no time. It will not take long to realize that there is Paradise Ransomware inside the system because this threat affects files right after its successful entrance. In other words, it encrypts them all and does not allow users to access them. This ransomware infection acts the way it does because it wants users’ money. Do not even think about sending your money to the developer of Paradise Ransomware no matter that you need to get your files back badly because cyber criminals just want your money, and the chances are high that they will not give you the decryption tool after getting what they want. Because of this, we have only one recommendation for those users whose PCs are infected with this ransomware infection – delete Paradise Ransomware as soon as possible without any hesitation. Once this threat is gone from your system, you could then go to restore your encrypted data. A free decryptor does not exist, but there is still one way to get back these encrypted files – you could restore them from a backup after the full removal of the ransomware infection. Read more »
