What is SecureCrypted?
SecureCrypted is a file-encrypting ransomware-type virus that stealthily infiltrates computers and encrypts stored files using an asymmetric encryption algorithm. During this process, SecureCrypted adds the ".disappeared", ".SecureCrypted”, “.bleepYourData" or “.F**YourData” extension to each encrypted file.
For example, sample.jpg becomes sample.jpg.SecureCrypted. Text files are then created and named after the encrypted files (for example, sample.jpg.Contact_Here_To_Recover_Your_Files.txt or sample.jpg.Where_my_files.txt).
