Invincible Ransomware

Invincible Ransomware

If Invincible Ransomware has invaded your computer, you might believe that your personal files are encrypted. That is not the case. At least, that was not the case when Anti-Spyware-101.com research team was testing and analyzing this infection. The research has revealed that the threat could potentially rewrite MBR to display a screen-locking window entitled “Ransomware InVincible” to represent the bogus ransom demands. This is how the infamous Petya Ransomware operates as well, and it looks like the creator of the ransomware we are analyzing has decided to replicate some features of well-known infections. Another infection that the ransomware has similarities with is the infamous WanaCry Ransomware (also known as Wana Decrypt0r Ransomware). The similarities can be discovered in the ransom notes that are used by the threats. On the left side, you are introduced to timers. At the top, you are greeted with the same message: “Ooops, your files have been encrypted!” At the bottom, you are shown almost identical payment details; except that the wannabe infection asks only 50 USD. Regardless of the sum, you should not pay it. You should delete Invincible Ransomware. Read more »

Symbiom Ransomware

Symbiom Ransomware

Symbiom Ransomware is a newly created file-encrypting application based on an open source code known as Hidden Tear. Therefore, it is entirely possible users could decrypt the files that were enciphered by this threat with a decryption tool created for Hidden Tear by volunteer IT specialists. Symbiom Ransomware’s developers are offering to recover its malware’s damaged files for a particular price, but since there are no guarantees they will hold to their word, our researchers at Anti-spyware-101.com recommend not to risk losing one’s savings. Instead, we advise you to erase the malicious application and look for other ways to get your valuable data back. For this reason, we are providing deletion instructions at the end of the report. However, if you do not want to take any rash decisions, it would be a good idea to read the article first and get to know this infection better. Read more »

Zayka Ransomware

Zayka Ransomware

If your personal files were renamed, and a suspicious “.ZAYKA” extension was attached to them, the malicious Zayka Ransomware has encrypted your files. This malicious threat is very clandestine, and you are most likely to let it in yourself unknowingly. In most cases, this infection is found spread via spam emails, and so if you receive any, be very careful about the files you open or the links you click on. Note that malicious spam emails can be very convincing, and so you have to be extra vigilant. Of course, other security backdoors could be used as well, and so you have to be careful every step of the way when online. Anti-malware software can help your keep malicious threats away; however, it cannot perform miracles once malicious infections are in. Although it is strongly recommended by Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers that you install anti-malware software to have Zayka Ransomware deleted, this software, unfortunately, will not decrypt your files. In fact, at the moment, there is no way to decrypt them, and you might end up losing them altogether. Read more »

Wannacryonclick Ransomware
