Top 5 Most Dangerous Ransomware

Here's some fix (for the OS only):

Change your hard drive and install another OS
Don't plug your installer while computer is running.

After you reinstall it, don't use any account that previously used from the attacked os.

Happens to me one time when I wrongly downloaded some CoD in the internet with a password "1234"

me, who keeps literally 0 important files on my PC and has copies of the unimportant ones: Interesting.

0.909 BTC. Yeah, I'm sure a lot of people just have that laying around. 🙄

Wow, you're a bit American as well

In Poland we had a way dumber version of furlocker around 10 years ago. It would be just a website that would make it difficult to close. On it there was an information that you are charged with trafficking CP, piracy and spreading HIV on purpose and have to either pay 150 pln (around 40$) or face 10 years in prison xD. The funniest part was that the site was autotransleted with google translator, there was a giant, powerfully moustached face of president Bronisław Komorowski in the middle of it, you could pay it only with paysafecard, they spelled "Policja" wrong (Police in polish) and they even put a coat of arms of a town called "Police" as polish police's coat of arms xDDDD

Sau în alte cazuri ar fi vorba de armata sau instituții de stat băga-mi-as plan familia lor având legătură tot cu prima specificare

The moust ? The moust dangerous e să-ți iei o pl in cur și sa te ardă cineva de pe card , din cont sau direct la bani sau sub alte tipuri de forme in mod constant , asta e de moust dangerous

I only trust Kaspersky to protect me on the internet.

Just reformat your hard drive or SSD.

I had same I had same problem but my problem was solved

Please make a video on stop/djvu ransomware and .ooza extension ransomware

Its good that news makes people aware of this. Yhen it will educate people and help spread awareness.

1st step: ditch windows.

Easiest way to deal with Ransomware is to format and reinstall the OS and not have critical data stored on it.

A question: take multiple ransomwares which are known to be decryptable, and run them all one at a time on a machine. Can that machine's data be restored? (in theory it should still be)

Even you watch this video you still have risk

Roses are red
Your files are gone
I'm Petya
The ransomware bomb
(gets screwed over by Macaffe)
Just you wait
Click click clank
I got your hard drive
The ultimate whank


Ransomware in a nutshell

I have a question. I was hit by ransomware 2 months ago, but thankfully I had a friend of mine who helped me get rid of it.
My question is : When ransomware encrypts your data, what kind of data? Internet accounts? I'm new to cybersecurity so I would like to know, thanks

No protection will ever make any system 100% safe which is why you need to have a sound backup in place and running backups as often as needed. I'd never pay them nor would think paying the ransom would guarantee recovery of all your vital data. Don't trust cloud backup that run all the time either. There is a way they could get infected just as easily. Have a local backup media where you connect/disconnect only when you are running a backup on a healthy system which should typically be done either after a fresh bootup or right before shutting down.
If you do not have an external drive or money for some backup system, here is what you can do at the very least: Have an Admin level user and a Standard user account. Your daily computer use should always be conducted under the standard user. You only login to the Admin account to backup the standard user account's data to the Admin account. Standard user account will NOT have access to Admin account so if when using the standard user account you get a ransomware, the data in the Admin account will not be encrypted. Just to be safe, you do not login with the admin account to the infected system either if unsure how the infection occurred in the first place. Best to boot to a bootable flash drive and copy the clean data to an external media first before doing any work...

I couldn't help but notice the recent trend with embedding infostealers in ransomware. May as well go back to pen and paper for things at this point, lmao.

as a private consumer, could i just the wipe the drives, format them and reinstall windows to get rid of the malware? i usually backup personal files, like pictures etc. on an external USB drive, which i disconnect after copying. everything else on my computer is expendable, so long the hardware isn't damaged. is that viable, or will the system still be infected after formating the drives and a fresh OS reinstall?

Top hackers: Encrypting your data and demanding money
Also top hackers: "an military"

I didn't see wannacry on the news, I saw it on my pc though

The thing that still pisses me off about the Colonial Pipeline attack was that it actually didn't shut down their ability to transfer gas at all, just their ability to track the cost of it

Hello Sir can you help me with ransomware files extension .sspq

easy i will just use windows 11 Pre Install and then delete virus

Okay, i hate the scum making these things, BUT the fact that apple schematics were stolen and seemingly some posted isn’t that bad, as in it might hel the repair of apple devices or something.

I got help in decrypting mine by*rybertech* that crazy thing

i'm really totaly angry at those Retarded Hacker if they make messing up my computer!

that one company that runs any program in some trash laptop without wifi: im 10 universes ahead of you

This is why you need important things paste to cds (not removable)

ITT: Russian bots

When dealing with my complaints about my account, you kept your professionalism. Belingorecoup your level of quality work remains amazing; thank you for all of your help. Without your assistance, I would not have been able to regain my page.

It's incredible how well you managed the things at hand. Thank you for taking the extra time to get things done. Despite the fact that I had about a little chance of restoring my hacked account, belingorecoup proved once again that professionalism isn't enough; honesty is also essential. I appreciate all you've done.

I truly appreciate your dedication to this process *belingorecoup*. I like your commitment to your work. Your excellent performance in resolving my account was quite valuable to me. I'd want to thank you one more for all of your hard work.

Things have recently been pretty bad. Despite the fact that nearly everyone was in tears, it proceeded. That's what happens when you believe you can finish the procedures on your own. Many thanks to Belingorecoup for safely restoring my account, regardless of how bad the world is.

I was worried for more than a month when a hacker changed my email, phone number, and password ,and I couldn't upload the selfie video until I received aid from Belingorecoup and I finally got to see my unforgettable images. Thank you very much.

I honestly believed that the people who advised Belingorecoup were bots. My account issue was significant enough for them to investigate. Fortunately, they are real; I still don't understand how they were able to regain my account.

Wow, this is terrible! I cannot believe how evil and deceptive these ransomware are!

Fun fact, you could tell the “London police” ransomware is from the USA as it uses the term Federal crime

We don’t have “Federal” crimes. Our crimes ranges from Minor/Serious offences. We also don’t have juries, serious offenders are prosecuted at the “Crown” court

A better example of a good ransomware example would be PCEU. Though police like the USA don’t lock you out.

Kaspersky Is Declared A US National Security Threat And Is Banned By The FCC
by Nathan Wasson — Monday, March 28, 2022, 05:34 PM EDT
However, despite Kasperksys continued documentation of vulnerabilities and malware, the company has come under scrutiny from the US government. Back in 2017, news broke that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) was warning companies not to use Kaspersky software, presumably over concerns of government spying. While Kaspersky is a multinational company with offices in a number of countries, including the US, UK, and Japan, the company is headquartered in Moscow, Russia. Even though Kaspersky is a private company, the US government remains wary.
Less than a month after news broke of the FBI’s warnings against using Kaspersky software, the Department of Homeland Security issued a Binding Operational Directive (BOD) requiring certain federal agencies and contractors to remove Kaspersky products from federal information systems. The BOD is intended to safeguard the information and information services of federal agencies.

Fast forward to late last week, and the Federal Communications Commission added Kaspersky, along with China Mobile and China Telecom, to a list of communications equipment and services that are deemed to pose an unacceptable risk to US national security. The list falls under Section 2 of the Secure Networks Act, which was passed in 2019 and “prohibits the use of certain federal funds to obtain communications equipment or services from a company that poses a national security risk to U.S. communications networks.” The list is maintained by the FCC and was last updated in March of 2021 to include Huawei, ZTE, and three others.

In its explanation of the new additions to the list, the FCC cites the 2017 BOD: “we interpret the BOD to be a finding from the Department of Homeland Security that Kaspersky-branded products pose an unacceptable risk to the national security of the United States.”
Kaspersky published a statement on the FCC public notice, expressing disappointment in the FCC’s decision. Speaking of the 2017 BOD, the statement reads, “As there has been no public evidence to otherwise justify those actions since 2017, and the FCC announcement specifically refers to the Department of Homeland Security’s 2017 determination as the basis for today’s decision, Kaspersky believes today’s expansion of such prohibition on entities that receive FCC telecommunication-related subsidies is similarly unsubstantiated and is a response to the geopolitical climate rather than a comprehensive evaluation of the integrity of Kaspersky’s products and services.”

Kaspersky also maintains that it “doesn’t have any ties with any government, including Russia’s,” but that it “remains ready to cooperate with US government agencies to address the FCC’s and any other regulatory agency’s concerns.” Given the delay between the 2017 BOD and the FCC’s listing of Kaspersky as a national security threat this past week, one might speculate that the Russian invasion of Ukraine spurred the FCC’s recent decision. However, government agencies and regulatory bodies are known for being incredibly slow-moving, so the delay may simply be the result of government bureaucracy working as usual.

I could have sworn there was a ransomware that puts it at the beginning of your boot up and stops it from going forward without the password

There is a anyway to decrytp virus using online encrytp key?
