Guys be protected this virus is affected world wide n it will hack down ur all information
*********Ransomware**********By now all of we have heard of the global ransomware attack. It has created a lot of confusions in the mind of computer users. Over 60,000 companies of more than 100 countries have become the victim of this malware. So how this ransomware works and what are the possible solutions……
The term ‘RANSOMWARE’ itself gives the idea of its nature. It is somehow related to some kind of ransom. Yes, exactly it is. It is a type of malware which gets into your computer and locks down all the files. Afterwards it seeks for money from the user in order to get access to the locked files. The recent ransomwares are smarter than ever. It just not only locks down the files rather it encrypts the files which makes it really impossible to crack open the locked files. As a result the users do not have any other way to regain access to their locked files but to pay the money and get the decryption code.
So how does it get into your computer..???
The easiest to get into someone’s computer is through attachments of spam emails or by entering into any unknown link. The extension of these files are different than the conventional files. Usually users turn off the file extensions, so they can not know what kind of file they are clicking on. The virus file pretends like a doc file or any other text file. But if you turn on the file extension of your computer you will see that the file extensions are different. As you click on the file all your data start encrypting and eventually asking you for ransom.
In case if you are interested these are the possible real extensions of ransomware files……( .ecc, .ezz, .exx, .zzz, .xyz, .aaa, .abc, .ccc, .vvv, .xxx, .ttt, .micro, .crypto, crypt, .crinf, .r5a, .XRNT, .XTBL, .crypt, .R16M01D05, .pzdc, .good, .LOL!, .OMG!, .RDM, .RRK, .encryptedRSA, .crjoker, .EnCiPhErEd, .LeChiffre, .keybtc@inboxcom, .0×0, .bleep, .1999, .vault, .HA3, .toxcrypt, .magic, .SUPERCRYPT, .CTBL, .CTB2, .locky or 6-7 length extension consisting of random characters.)
The recent ransomware which is causing mass loss is known as #WannaCry. This asks for opening a javascript file in your email in the format (.js). So it is now recommended not to open any unknown attachments sent through emails.
How to recover a ransomware infected computer……..?
Well, for now there is no way to open the encrypted files. As I mentioned earlier you have to pay through bitcoins in order to get the decryption code.
Safety measures :
1. Keep your Operating System up to date.
2. Keep you Anti-Virus up to date.
3. Create back up for the most important files either in a secured hard drive or in a secured cloud storage.
4. Do not open any email attachments from unknown senders.
5. Be careful while opening and downloading from any unknowing third party websites.
Stay safe……….

this is a perfect example to show next world war is cyber war . just 1 click and whole economy down , no need to kill people . as per message on wsap i got , they are asking payment in bitcoin and have contact us option too , how those so called intelligence agencies of USA not able to catch these .
guys must make a backup ready for all your files (imp one) , no one knows when we need them , bcoz paying them so much money is not a good idea .
Btw,
I was wondering if I can pay them in Supercash for the ransom*?
😃
@DealSeeker , i as well was somewhat thinking about the 2nd point you stated (humanity part), majority of the crowd would usually fall for that sort of tricks.
Wo sab to thik hai.. par ATM se paise ni nikle to mera kya hoga
This is just start we may see more upcoming attack like this,what we will going to see will be dark side of internet.
like universe we can’t control same way internet is our local universe that we can’t control,
opening email will not affect you but opening any attachment will affect you so advise do not open any type of unknown mails
if you working in office once you open infected attachment and if you office is connected with networks than virus spread on that network other ppl dnt need to open mail or attachment,
means if someone open infected attachment and you are connected to him means your system will be going to infected,
patch release is for that that if virus enter in system if you have updated with that patch so ur system will not infected,
this is why it’s called virus like same virus inside our body once enter it’s auto replica n start xerox machine and go to each part of your body because your body is connected to your brain network,once virus reached brain imp place of every network boom
so i was wrong i called ransomeware malware to virus ? i just called virus so i can write what i want to
i know it’s malware but most of ppl consider all these to be a Virus, no matter, whatever be their type,i know it’s small kind of program which use cryptovirology to encrypt files and Master File Table,i not pro hacker and dnt have name like you hacker prince
btw i was expecting you to hack my system and dd as per your name copy pasting from blog don’t respect name of Hacker_ Prince
