Coronavirus Ransomware

Coronavirus Ransomware

As the world is busy while trying to fight the Coronavirus (COVID-19), hackers are creating threats like Coronavirus Ransomware. This malicious application encrypts its victim’s files with a robust encryption algorithm and then displays a note saying that he has to pay to get decryption tools.

Thus, unlike the actual Coronavirus that spreads from person to person, Coronavirus Ransomware does not travel from one infected computer to another. If you want to learn more about it, we invite you to read our full article. Also, at the end of it, you can find out prepared deletion instructions that show how you could erase this malware manually. However, we should stress that it might be safer to leave this task to a legitimate antimalware tool. Read more »

Blend Ransomware

Blend Ransomware

Failure to protect the Windows operating system can result in the invasion of Blend Ransomware, a file-encrypting and ransom-demanding infection that will not leave one personal file untouched. In the first phase of the attack, the infection executes itself and drops additional files. Then, it encrypts personal files. Finally, it introduces ransom demands in return for a decryptor that, allegedly, is the only savior. That could be the case, but that does not mean that cybercriminals would actually help you with the decryption of personal documents or photos even if you fulfilled their demands to a T. Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers note that victims who have backups outside the system can easily replace the corrupted files after deleting Blend Ransomware. Hopefully, that is the option that works for you. Of course, whether or not you restore your personal files, removing the malicious threat is crucial. Continue reading to learn about the process, and note that a manual removal guide can be found below. Read more »

Rezm Ransomware

Rezm Ransomware

Rezm Ransomware can prevent you from accessing your documents, photos, and data alike. As you see, the malware encrypts such files with a robust encryption algorithm. The files that get affected can only be recovered with particular decryption software. As usual for threats from the Stop Ransomware family, its ransom note claims that users can get decryption tools if they pay 980 US dollars or half of it if they put up with specific demands. Unfortunately, whether you pay or not, there are no reassurances that cybercriminals will send you the decryption tools that they promise. Naturally we advise concentrating on the malware’s deletion if you do not want to pay ransom. The instructions below show how you could erase Rezm Ransomware manually, although if the process seems too challenging, we recommend using a legitimate antimalware tool instead. For more information, we invite you to read the rest of this article. Read more »
