InnfiRAT
InnfiRAT is a malicious application with backdoor capabilities. It means that hackers behind this malware might be able to access an infected device repeatedly. Moreover, our specialists say that its creators should be able to send the threat commands or tasks they want to be performed remotely. Therefore, the malicious application was classified as a RAT (Remote Access Trojan). If you want to know more about what such a threat might be able to do to a system, we invite you to read the rest of our report. As usual, the last paragraph talks about the malware’s deletion, and if you take a look at the guide located below it, you should find step by step instructions, which explain how it might be possible to get rid of InnfiRAT manually. ...
Nakw Ransomware
If you take Windows security for granted, you might face Nakw Ransomware or any other malicious infection designed to look for flaws and backdoors using which it could slither in unnoticed. When Nakw slithers in, it encrypts files, which means that a special algorithm is employed to change the data within the files. Normally, this is used to lock the files and make them accessible to their creators only. However, cybercriminals have found a way to encrypt files to make them inaccessible to the creators. This is done so that the attackers could demand money from their victims. ...
Marcher
Marcher has been silent for a couple of years, but knowing it took time for its creators to release its newer versions in the past, we believe there is a chance the Trojan could still make a comeback. The first time cybersecurity experts discovered it was back in 2013. Afterward, three new upgrades showed up in 2016 and 2017. Each new version had the same capabilities as the first one but brought further improvements. As a result, the malicious application became more and more sophisticated. Thus, it was able to do a lot of damage to users and organizations with Android devices that the malware was targeted at right from the start. ...
Dishwasher Ransomware
You do not need to panic if Dishwasher Ransomware slithers into your operating system because that will not be the end of the world, but, unfortunately, this infection can really leave you with a bitter taste in your mouth. If it invades the system and encrypts files successfully, these files will be unreadable, and it is unknown whether or not you will be able to ever restore them. According to our malware experts, just like Hakbit Ransomware, Nols Ransomware, Sorryforthis Ransomware, Kiss Ransomware, Ccryptor Ransomware, and many other threats alike, it can employ a complex encryption algorithm, and that means that decrypting the files manually is unlikely to be possible. ...
Encryptd Ransomware

Our researchers say there are no fully working samples yet, but there are some details already known about this malicious application. If you are interested in this threat, we encourage you to read our full article, in which we talk about how it could be spread, what it might do if it enters a system, and how it could be erased.

Of course, if you have any questions about this malicious application, you can leave us a comment at the end of this page. ...
Toec Ransomware
The STOP Ransomware family keeps growing, and now Toec Ransomware has joined it. Unsurprisingly, this malicious infection is identical to hundreds of others that came before it. A few of them include Nols Ransomware, Noos Ransomware, and Boot Ransomware. This malware is likely to spread using spam emails, which means that the launcher is likely to be introduced to you as a document file. The message representing it could look as if it was sent by a delivery company, a bank, and airline, or something similar to that. ...
Hakbit Ransomware
Do not let Hakbit Ransomware encrypt your files because it is unlikely that you will be able to restore them back to normal. If you want to prevent this malware from slithering in, our best advice is to keep your operating system updated and protected. To add a separate layer of protection for your personal files, create backups outside the operating system. Do NOT connect to backups if your system is infected, and all of your files are encrypted because you do not want to put your backups at risk too. ...
Nols Ransomware
Nols Ransomware might disable your Task Manager and start encrypting your files if it gets in. Our specialists say that the malware’s victims might be tricked into thinking they are launching updates when, in reality, they may open the threat’s installer. To make it look more convincing, the malicious application could open a fake updates message that might claim a user should not turn off his computer while the system is being updated. If you fall for this, the malware might be able to encipher all of your photos, archives, documents, and various other personal files. ...
Kiss Ransomware
Kiss Ransomware marks all files it encrypts with a “kiss.” To be more precise, the threat appends an extension that is called .kiss to the victim’s files that it locks with a strong encryption algorithm. In front of it, there should also be a unique user ID number and an email address that belongs to the malware’s creators. For instance, files on our test computer were marked with the following combination: [id-N6LpOP4n].[decodor@airmail.cc].kiss. After encrypting files, the malicious program ought to drop a file with contact information. It is not an unusual practice as many similar threats do not show detailed instructions on how to decrypt files, but leave it for a user to find out. ...
Ccryptor Ransomware
Do you value documents and photos stored on your computer? If you do, the entrance of Ccryptor Ransomware will be very nerve-wracking. This infection slithers in silently, but it does not stay silent. Instead, it exposes itself as soon as all personal files are encrypted, and the “.ccryptor” extension is added to their names. Do not bother changing the name, removing the extension, or even opening the file. If it was encrypted, it is no longer readable, and it will not be readable unless you apply a decryptor. Do you know where to get it? At the time of research, third-party decryptors that could help did not exist, and it was probably not possible to decrypt files manually. ...
