When Wana Decrypt0r Ransomware invades, it does everything to ensure that your files are encrypted for good. It deletes Shadow Volume Copies and disables Startup Repair.

If Ctf Ransomware has invaded your operating system, you might have found that your personal files now have the “.ctf” extension appended to their names. These files are the encrypted ones, and it is not exactly clear why the ransomware was created to encrypt them at all. In most cases, ransomware threats are used to coerce users into paying ransom fees, which, by the way, is rarely a solution because cyber criminals are not obligated to provide the victims with decryption tools. In this case, the infection does not demand a ransom. In fact, there are no demands at all, which is why Anti-Spyware-101.com malware research team believes that this malware was created for educational purposes. Due to this, it is unlikely to spread widely, at least not to the extent of WanaCrypt0r Ransomware and other well-known infections of this kind.

If your operating system was not updated in the past months, WanaCrypt0r Ransomware could slither in without any warning. Although the vulnerability patch that is necessary to prevent this infection from entering the computer has been created in March 2017, many users have failed to install it, which is the main reason the malicious ransomware is spreading. Once it slithers in, it demands a ransom of $300 to be paid to one of three Bitcoin Addresses, which include 115p7UMMngoj1pMvkpHijcRdfJNXj6LrLn, 12t9YDPgwueZ9NyMgw519p7AA8isjr6SMw, and 13AM4VW2dhxYgXeQepoHkHSQuy6NgaEb94 (at the time of research, they had collected a staggering sum of $65,970.35, or 38.89 BTC). You are given 3 days to make a move, and that is a long period to think things through. The bad news is that the cyber crooks who have created this ransomware are not reliable, and so it would be naive to expect them to provide their victims with appropriate decryption keys in return for ransom payments. Anti-Spyware-101.com research team warns that it is most likely that your files are locked permanently, and there is nothing you can do to decrypt them. Despite that, you MUST remove WanaCrypt0r Ransomware. Read more »

The key is included in this article, so if your PC has become infected with this ransomware, you might want to read this article. Read more »

Fatboy Ransomware, also known as PyCL Ransomware, is a new RaaS ransomware discovered by malware analysts. It has fallen into the group of RaaS (Ransomware as a Service) ransomware because it is available for download somewhere on the DarkNet, and those people with bad intentions can easily personalize it, for example, decide upon a size of a ransom. Also, they are the ones responsible for distributing this ransomware-type infection too. At the time of writing, the infection rate of Fatboy Ransomware is quite low. Additionally, it seems that its C&C server is down and, in consequence, the ransomware infection cannot reach it. Because of this, at present, this threat does not encrypt any files, and there is no information about the amount of money or the Bitcoin address (it is necessary to know it to transfer money) provided to users. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that it is the end of the campaign. Specialists at anti-spyware-101.com say that this threat might steer itself in any direction, i.e. it might never revive or start working again in full swing soon. We hope that you are reading this article not because your PC is infected with a properly-working version of Fatboy Ransomware. If our worst fear has become a reality, i.e. you have discovered a ransomware infection on your computer, delete it without the slightest hesitation even if your files have been locked. Read more »
