Additional password stealing trojans and malware infections can be installed together with a ransomware infection.

Infected email attachments (macros), torrent websites, malicious ads.Īll files are encrypted and cannot be opened without paying a ransom. Cyber criminals are asking to pay a ransom (usually in bitcoins) to unlock your files. A ransom demanding message is displayed on your desktop. Threat Summary: NameĬan't open files stored on your computer, previously functional files now have a different extension, for example my.docx.locked.

Third party software download sources such as freeware download websites, free file hosting websites, peer-to-peer (P2P) networks such as eMule, torrents, etc. If a trojan installed, it is likely to proliferate other viruses. Trojans are malicious programs that cause chain infections. Fake software updaters usually infect computers by downloading/installing viruses rather than the promised updates, or by exploiting bugs/flaws of outdated software.

Once opened, the attachments download and install viruses. They trick people into opening these attachments by presenting them as important files.

To infect systems using spam campaigns, cyber criminals send emails that contain malicious attachments (MS Office documents, archive files, PDF files, executables, and so on). It is difficult to determine exactly how Fire's developers proliferate their virus, but it is likely that they use spam email campaigns, fake software updaters, trojans, or untrustworthy software download sources. Therefore, maintain regular backups and store them on remote servers or unplugged storage devices, otherwise cyber criminals might be able to encrypt these backups with other data. Generally, ransomware victims cannot recover their files without the involvement of ransomware developers (no recommended). These infections generate a unique key for each of their victims and the keys are stored on remote servers controlled by cyber criminals. These viruses might differ in terms of size of ransom and cryptography algorithm ( symmetric or asymmetric) used to encrypt files. Developers use them to encrypt files and make ransom demands. Most ransomware-type infections (such as Crypted034, Bear, BlackHat, and many more) are very similar. Screenshot of a message encouraging users to pay a ransom to decrypt their compromised data: The only way to retrieve your files free of charge is to use an existing backup and restore files from there.

They provide no decryption keys even if their demands are met. They often ignore victims and who are scammed. Despite these threats and demands, do not trust any cyber criminals.

They even offer free decryption of one file as a 'guarantee' that they can be trusted, however, they warn victims not to try to decrypt files using third party software (other than their decryption tool), since this might cause permanent data loss or increased cost of decryption. They also promise to send a decryption tool as soon as the ransom is paid (which must be in Bitcoins). According to the cyber criminals, the cost of decryption depends on how quickly their victims make contact. To decrypt their files, Fire's victims must contact developers using the email address and the designated ID. According to statements in the Fire pop-up window, this virus has encrypted all files due to 'security issues' on the computer. The 'FILES ENCRYPTED.txt' ransom note contains an email address to contact cyber criminals (developer of Fire ransomware). fire' extension plus an ID and email address.įor example, ' 1.jpg' might be renamed to a filename such as ' Fire ransomware also creates a text file, a ransom note within a file called ' FILES ENCRYPTED.txt', and displays a ransom-demand pop-up window. All encrypted files are renamed by adding the '. This infection was discovered by Jakub Kroustek and is designed to infect operating systems and lock all files by encryption. Fire (a new variant of Dharma) is a high-risk virus that is categorized as ransomware.
