Some researchers say TitanCryptor Ransomware should be called ArgusCrypt Ransomware instead since the malicious application appends the .argus extension to its encrypted files.

In the rest of the text, we talk about what happens if the threat infects a computer. As well as what are the options one has after receiving such a malicious application.

If Delphimorix Red Ransomware gets an opportunity to invade your operating system, your files are done for. Once they are encrypted, they cannot be restored, unless you obtain a decryptor, and you would have to pry it out of the hands of cyber criminals to get it. Considering that you cannot even face these cyber criminals, accessing the decryptor is likely to be impossible. Furthermore, the attackers do not even want you to get the decryptor because it is offered at a ridiculous price, which we discuss further in the report. Ultimately, if your operating system was invaded, and your personal files were corrupted, there isn’t much you can do to fix the situation. ...
Your operating system cannot be vulnerable. If it is, Cheetah Ransomware and many other malicious threats could try to invade it. Unfortunately, in many cases, Windows users are tricked into executing this malware themselves because it can be disguised to confuse them.

Spam emails are often used for the distribution of malware, but beware that other kinds of attacks could be used as well. The same rules apply to all file-encrypting infections, including cyberwars@qq.com Ransomware, Kiratos Ransomware, or BigBobRoss Ransomware, which is the predecessor of the infection we are discussing in this report. ...

If you need to convert files, you have to be cautious about the services you use. The services offered by Best File Converter are not trustworthy.

Do backup copies of your personal files exist? If they do not, you want to fix that immediately because threats like cyberwars@qq.com Ransomware can permanently damage your files by encrypting them. Although the file is not removed or changed during the encryption process, it is locked up. Once the file is encrypted, it can only be read using a decryptor, and that is the genius behind ransomware. If the victim does not have backups, they NEED the decryptor, and the creator of the infection is well willing to give it to those who pay. That is what you are supposed to believe. ...

When Kiratos Ransomware slithers into your operating system, it launches a window that is meant to trick you into thinking that Windows is updating. That is a huge red flag because the operating system does not update randomly. Unfortunately, even if you realize that something is out of the ordinary, it is unlikely that you will be able to stop the threat because once it starts the encryption process, it does not take long to complete it. This starts as soon as the threat is executed, which might happen when you open a file sent to you via spam email. ...
