Remove KillerLocker Ransomware

In this article, we will discuss a new Ransomware-like infection called KillerLocker Ransomware . They should remove this application, your PC is infected, it’s designed to encrypt your files by using the AES cryptosystems. We have found that this program is in the test phase of its development, which is why it is still not as fast encrypt something. Once but the full version is released, these are bad news for those who have no antimalware program because she is now secretly encrypt the files. You can’t say whether you’ll be able to decrypt the encrypted files using the fee-based decryption tool from the developers. To learn more about it, read this article where we try to decipher the mystery of these ransomware.

We begin our analysis with the origins of these ransomware. We have found out that it was created by dodgy cybercriminals in Portugal. This is obvious, because all of the text in this Ransomware in Portuguese is, why their distribution limited to in Portuguese speaking countries such as Portugal, Brazil, Mozambique, Angola and some other.

Since this Ransomware is not yet published, we know nothing about their distribution methods. If it is completed but ultimately, we believe that she most likely will be disseminated about malicious emails masquerading as legitimate invoices or receipts. The emails may include a direct link to this Ransomware is downloaded once you click on it, or the email might have a malicious JavaScript file that this Ransomware is secretly running a malicious code to download the executable file. The E-Mails can include also a ZIP file attachment, which has the executable of this Ransomware and is set, she will be extracted on your PC as soon as you open it. There are many ways for the dissemination of Ransomware and we can list here, not all of them. In the end, she is so set that she secretly infects your PC and you will not see it.

Each Ransomware works differently. While some encrypt everything on a computer, others are picky, which is also the case with this particular ransomware. Once it is on your computer, the KillerLocker Ransomware is the folder % programfiles %, % APPDATA %, % USERPROFILE%\Desktop, %USERPROFILE%\MyPictures and % LocalAppData % scan and encrypt all files, including executable files (. exe). For this reason you will no longer be able, run applications whose Dateien located at the above mentioned places.

We have received information that pretend that the KillerLocker Ransomware uses the AES encryption system with a 256 bit key. AES-256 is a strong encryption algorithm, and this file will create a public encryption key and a private decryption key that is uploaded on the C2 server of this ransomware. To maintain this decryption key and decrypt your valuable files, you would have to pay the currently unknown ransom in Bitcoin. During the encryption of files, the files are provided with the extension “.rip”, and once the encryption is complete, a window appears with the image of a morbid clowns.

This window also has a line in which you should enter the decryption code. Also, the window States that you have 48 hours to pay the ransom. We don’t know what would happen next, but we believe that one can assume that she start the jigsaw Ransomware is similar, to delete the files.

As you can see, the KillerLocker Ransomware is a dangerous application that you can cause many problems, like for example your precious files to lose. There is no way to determine whether the developer would keep their promises and give you the code once you have paid, but there is no information about the requested amount of money, which is why we believe that it would be uneconomical to pay at all. We recommend to remove this Ransomware with instructions below or as for example SpyHunter, to use an anti-malware program, which automatically clears the infection.
