Princess Evolution Ransomware

What is Princess Evolution?

Princess Evolution is an updated version of high-risk ransomware called Princess. Developers proliferate this virus by using the RIG Exploit Kit. Once infiltrated, Princess Evolution immediately encrypts most stored files, thereby making them unusable.

In addition, it generates a unique string (e.g, ".RcK1") and appends it to the name of each compromised file (for instance, "sample.jpg" might be renamed to "sample.jpg.RcK1").

Once data is encrypted, Princess Evolution generates two files ("^_READ_TO_RE5T0RE_[random_string].txt" and "^_READ_TO_RE5T0RE_[random_string].html"), placing copies of each in all existing folders.

   
Porn Scrubber Unwanted Application (Mac)

What is Porn Scrubber?

Created by the developers of Advanced Mac Cleaner and Mac Mechanic, Porn Scrubber is a dubious application that supposedly helps users to remove traces of all visited porn websites.

The app is very similar to Mac Auto Fixer. Initially, Porn Scrubber may seem legitimate and useful, however, developers proliferate this potentially unwanted application (PUA) using a deceptive marketing method called "bundling". Therefore, Porn Scrubber often infiltrates systems without users’ permission.

What is FedEx Tracking Email Virus?

Similar to eFax Email Virus, "FedEx Tracking Email Virus" is a spam email campaign used to proliferate a high-risk trojan called Hancitor.

Once opened, the attachments stealthily download and install the Hancitor trojan.

   
Searchadministrator.com Redirect

Cmb Dharma Ransomware

What is Cmb Dharma?

Cmb Dharma is another variant of a high-risk ransomware infection called Dharma. Immediately after infiltration, Cmb Dharma encrypts most stored files, thus making them unusable. During the process, Cmb Dharma appends each filename with the ".id-[victim's_ID].[paymentbtc@firemail.cc].cmb" extension.

For instance, "sample.jpg" might be renamed to a filename such as "sample.jpg.id-1E857D00.[paymentbtc@firemail.cc].cmb". Once data is encrypted, Cmb Dharma opens a pop-up window and creates a text file ("FILES ENCRYPTED.txt"), placing a copy in every existing folder.
