C3RB3R Ransomware

What kind of malware is C3RB3R?

C3RB3R is a new variant of the Cerber ransomware. Malware within this category is designed to encrypt data and demand ransoms for its decryption. Ransomware typically renames encrypted files, and C3RB3R is not an exception.

It either adds the ".LOCK3D" extension (with the capital letter "O") to filenames or ".L0CK3D" (with a zero "0"). For example, a file initially named "1.jpg" would appear as either "1.jpg.LOCK3D" or "1.jpg.L0CK3D" following encryption. After this process is completed, C3RB3R drops a ransom-demanding message titled "read-me3.txt"; it is noteworthy that the number in the filename may vary.
