Ransomware is a type of computer malware that has a long history in the darkest corners of the Internet. In the last several years, however, the representatives of this malware category have been becoming more and more common, partially due to the increasing popularity of the BitCoin currency as a method of payment for the extortion attacks: this is a currency that is really difficult to trace, making it ideal for carrying out this type of fraudulent practices.

One of the latest infections of this type, which has been reported to our “How to remove” team, is called .Nusar. This is a Ransomware-based cryptovirus, like .Lotep and .Truke which uses a special encryption algorithm to block the files stored on the compromised computer. In order to extort money from its victims, .Nusar secretly applies encryption to all the files that it finds in the targeted machine, and then displays a ransom-demanding message on the screen, in which message it is explained that the files have been locked and that, in order to decrypt them, a ransom will have to be paid. The crooks behind the infection usually ask for a payment in BitCoin and give the victims a short deadline to transfer the money. In exchange for the completion of the payment, they promise to send a special decryption key that can reverse the encryption applied by .Nusar. Those who don’t agree to pay are threatened to never access their files again, as the key for them will be destroyed.

Payment of the ransom – can this save your files?

If the victim agrees to follow the ransom payment instructions, they basically leave the future of their files in the hands of criminals, as there is absolutely nothing that can guarantee that they will send the decryption key, let alone, that it will work. In fact, the security experts have reported many cases in which the ransom has been paid, yet the access to the encrypted information has not been recovered. Therefore, most official sites belonging to security professionals, including our “How to remove” team, do not recommend the payment of the ransom since this not a reliable solution and only encourages the growth of this type of crime and the increasing number of infections like .Nusar.

Prevention is the key.

This is something that you must have heard a lot, but prevention is better than cure and this sentence is even more valid when it comes to Ransomware infections such as .Nusar. If the success of the attack is only achieved when the victims pay the ransom, then, if most of the web users attacked have backups of their data and do not need to pay ransom to recover it, the crooks will easily lose interest in developing this type of infections. Of course, there are many other precautions one can take such as avoiding sites that may spread malware and not downloading anything that may be illegally distributed or pirated. However, it is necessary to emphasize on the importance of backing up the data, something that many people still forget to do.

Another recommendation, which may be banal but very important, is to always check the senders of suspicious messages that include links. It seems stupid to repeat this again and again, but a very big protion of the Ransomware attacks are made possible through the use of misleading online messages and e-mails that contain the malware or a link to it, which the users may be tricked into opening.
