Coza Ransomware

What kind of malware is Coza?

Our team identified the Coza ransomware, which belongs to the Djvu family, while examining samples on VirusTotal. This malware encrypts data and modifies the names of affected files by adding the ".coza" extension. Once the encryption process is finished, a ransom note is left behind in the form of a "_readme.txt" file.

Coza changes the names of files in the following manner: "1.jpg" becomes "1.jpg.coza", "2.png" becomes "2.png.coza", and so on. As the Djvu family is known to be associated with other malicious software like RedLine, Vidar, and information stealers, it is possible that Coza might also be distributed alongside these threats.
