Explanation of ransomware families and decryption tools

As you may have noticed, some of these decryption tools work for multiple ransomware families, while some families have more than one solution (rarer).

From a practical point of view, some of the decryptors are easy to use, but some require technical know-how.

As much as we would like this process to be easier, it is not always possible to make it so.

Fast & Guaranteed Recovery

HelpRansomware provides a 100% guaranteed ransomware removal and data recovery service, with 24/7 worldwide assistance.

No matter how much work and time researchers put into reverse engineering cryptoware, the truth is that we will never have a solution to all of these infections.

It would take an army of cybersecurity specialists working around the clock to achieve something like this.

How to avoid ransomware

One of the most effective ways to prevent ransomware from wreaking havoc and blocking your sensitive data is to stay alert and be proactive.

precautions against ransomware helpransomware

An excellent idea is to securely keep offline copies of vital information and equip your company with cyber-insurance.

That way, even if cybercriminals gain access to your computers and infect them with malware, you can wipe the system and restore your latest backup.

You will not lose money and no critical information will be compromised!

So please don’t postpone the backup process of your data.

Do it now and get safe!

Also, make your employees aware of this and share the basics of proactive protection with them; doing so will limit the risk of them becoming victims of ransomware and, consequently, you will also better protect your corporate network.

With the emergence of new ransomware, researchers decrypt some types, but others evolve into new variants and end up creating anything but a cat and mouse game.

Therefore, proactivity is vital.

Paying the ransom never guarantees that your data will actually be returned, as criminals could still put it up for sale on the Dark Web.

Therefore, prevention remains the best medicine as always.

However, the best doctors remain the experts: don’t make the mistake of thinking you can always solve everything yourself, contact HelpRansomware.
