What is yG?

Discovered by Jakub Kroustek, yG belongs to the Dharma family and is a malicious program categozied as ransomware. Programs of this type encrypt data. Therefore, people who have computers infected with ransomware cannot access their files unless they purchase a decryption tool from specific ransomware developers.

yG creates a "RETURN FILES.txt" file and displays a pop-up window. It also renames all encrypted files by adding the ".yG" extension. For example, "1.jpg" might be renamed to "1.jpg.id-E857D00.[sysadmin@mail.fr].yG" (note that it also adds the email address and victim's ID into the filename).
