Cryptes Ransomware

What is Cryptes?

Discovered by malware security researcher Michael Gillespie, Cryptes is ransomware-type malware that stealthily infiltrates the system and encrypts most files. In doing so, it appends filenames with the ".crypted" extension (e.g., "sample.jpg" is renamed to "sample.jpg.cryptes").

Encrypted files immediately become unusable. Following successful encryption, Cryptes creates a text file ("HOW TO DECRYPT ALL MY FILES.txt"), placing a copy in all existing folders.

   
Like Ransomware

What is Like?

First discovered by malware security researcher, Michael Gillespie, Like is a ransomware-type virus that stealthily infiltrates the system and encrypts most stored files.

During encryption, this virus appends filenames with the ".like" extension (for example, "sample.jpg" is renamed to "sample.jpg.like"). Once data is encrypted, using it becomes impossible. Like is also designed to generate a text file ("infoinfo.txt") and places a copy in every existing folder.

   
View Adware

What is View?

View is an updated version of an adware-type application called Save Serp Now. As with Save Serp Now, this application is also likely to infiltrate systems without users’ permission. Furthermore, its behavior barely differs - it gathers information and delivers intrusive advertisements.

Therefore, as with Save Serp Now, View is categorized as adware and a potentially unwanted application (PUA).

   
FileEncrypted Ransomware

What is FileEncrypted?

FileEncrypted is a ransomware-type virus discovered by malware security researcher, Michael Gillespie. Immediately after infiltration, FileEncrypted encrypts most stored files, thereby making them unusable. During encryption, FileEncrypted renames every file using the "[random_characters].FileEncrypted" pattern.

For instance, "sample.jpg" might be renamed to a filename such as "mIdca12=.FileEncrypted". Immediately after encrypting data, FileEncrypted generates an HTML file ("READ_TO_DECRYPT.html"), placing a copy in every existing folder.
