SymmyWare Ransomware displays a rather unusual ransom note since it says the user has to pay 0 BTC to get a key and a decoder necessary to decrypt files that the malware locks. Usually, ransom notes that do not ask for a payment are short and appear with test versions and not on malicious applications that are spread widely. Nonetheless, this threat’s ransom note gives an email address, which might mean the hackers want to be contacted via email before explaining how much to pay and how to make a transfer. Of course, it is not something our specialists would recommend since there is always a risk cybercriminals may scam victims. ...

CuteRansom Ransomware might have an adorable name, but we can assure you, it is a dangerous threat. The malicious application was most likely created for money extortion as it shows a ransom note. However, the instructions on it are very non-specific, which makes us think the malware could be not yet finished. It means the hackers, who developed it, may distribute it among some targeted victims to test the threat first. Of course, later infection’s versions might ask for money in exchange for decryption tools. In such a case, we recommend considering the proposal carefully, as there is not knowing if hackers will hold on to their promises. ...

GetCrypt Ransomware enciphers files to make them unrecognizable. In other words, once the data is affected, the computer should no longer open (recognize) it. The process is reversible, but only with a special decryptor. The hackers who developed the malicious application offer it for a particular price. Also, our specialists say that another decryptor should be available on the Internet as some cybersecurity specialists were able to create it. If you have no other options and do not want to risk losing your money in vain, you should look for the free decryption tool. ...
Do you know what happens when suppfirecrypt@qq.com Ransomware invades the Windows operating system? This infection scans it to find personal files, and then it encrypts them. During the process, the data of the files is changed to render them unreadable. Originally, encryption was invented to lock the data within the files that their owners wanted to keep private. Now, cyber criminals are using the same instrument to corrupt files and deny their owners access to them. This is done so that a ransom could be demanded in return for a decryptor. In our case, it is presented as a “decryption tool.” ...
AcruxMiner is an infection that might be hard to identify and even harder to remove because its structure and functionality are pretty much unpredictable. That is because the miner can be customized by the parties using it.

If you find that you need to delete AcruxMiner, you need to do it as soon as possible. ...
Your inability to secure the Windows operating system could cost you your personal files if INFOWAIT Ransomware got in.

The infection relies on stealthiness and camouflages to fly under the radar, but if reliable security software is installed to protect you and your files, it should be shot down and removed in no time. ...

In any case, our specialists were still able to find out some details about it. For starters, users ought to know that the tool falls under the classification of potentially unwanted programs. To find out more about it, we encourage you to read the rest of our report. ...
