Ahtw Ransomware

What kind of malware is Ahtw?

Ahtw is ransomware associated with the Djvu family. It encrypts files on the victim's computer and requests a ransom for the decryption tools. Our team encountered Ahtw during the analysis of recently submitted malware samples on the VirusTotal platform. It is worth mentioning that Ahtw may be distributed alongside other malware, including RedLine or Vidar.

Once Ahtw infects a computer, it appends the ".ahtw" extension to the filename of every encrypted file. For example, a file named "1.jpg" gets renamed to "1.jpg.ahtw", "2.png" to "2.png.ahtw", and so forth. Additionally, Ahtw creates a ransom note ("_readme.txt").

Here is an example of how Ahgr alters file names: it transforms "1.jpg" into "1.jpg.ahgr", "2.png" into "2.png.ahgr", and so on. It is important to mention that Ahgr, being part of the Djvu ransomware family, may be distributed alongside information stealers like Vidar and RedLine.
