.Scr Virus

.Scr

A Ransomware cryptovirus infection like .Scr is a particularly unpleasant problem to deal with because there may not always be a working solution against such malware threats. This is especially true when talking about some of the newer additions to this malware family. .Scr is one such addition – it is a cryptovirus piece of malware that can enter most computers without getting noticed and encrypt the files in them so that it could later blackmail the user for the access key to their inaccessible data.

The .Scr Virus

Newer cryptoviruses such as .Scr are known for being able to remain unnoticed even to the antivirus programs that the users may have. Although many antivirus vendors have started implementing ransomware-detection features in their products in the recent years, there are still many antivirus programs out there that lack such detection or the detection for Ransomware that they have is not all that effective.

Usually, you shouldn’t solely rely on your antivirus to keep you safe from Ransomware. Even if you have bought an expensive, high-tier package for some of the best antivirus programs out there and even if this program comes with a quality anti-ransomware protection, newer Ransomware cryptovirus representatives may still be able to sneak in the system and encrypt your files while remaining below the radar of your antivirus tool. The cryptovirus infections are well known for their elusiveness and stealth and one of the key aspects that contributes to this is the encryption process that they use. Most other forms of malware conduct processes in the system that are obviously harmful or suspicious – Trojans may harm your data, Spyware may keep tabs on your activities and so on. In most cases, this allows the quality antivirus and anti-malware tools to spot that there’s some unauthorized and potentially harmful activity in the system and intercept it. However, the encryption process isn’t an inherently harmful thing – instead, it is a method used for data protection and it doesn’t actually damage the user data in any way. This is why so many antivirus solutions aren’t able to spot the infection with a Ransomware on time and warn the user about it. Consequently, this is why the Ransomware cryptovirus category is one of the most widespread and problematic ones. Also, the fact that there aren’t any particular symptoms doesn’t help with the detection either. In some rare cases, the use of RAM, CPU and HDD space during the encryption process may be high enough for the user to notice it and realize there’s something sketchy going on but this happens seldom.

What to do after the encryption

The hackers, of course, readily offer their victims the key to their files for a certain payment. However, there are quite a few reasons why this course of action shouldn’t be your first choice. At the very least, you cannot be sure you’d actually receive anything for your money that would allow you to access your files. This is why our suggestion for you is to opt for the removal guide that you will see next and use it to remove the malware ad potentially restore some of the data through alternative means.
