Skunk(ette)s, We just got hit with the paycript ransom-ware on some of our file servers we've managed t identify the domain accounts running the script and disabled them. Seems to have stopped spreading across the network to our other file servers(for now...48 hours and counting) Suspected source has also been identified and measures taken. What remains now is finding a way to decrypt the files. The damn fools are asking for 2BTC for them to decrypt and double the amount to charge by the day if not paid. Anyone else who has had to go through the same? What measures did you take to recover?

What about the last FULL backup? Could be the only viable solution. Depending on your data generation and update, this could mean some severe backlog, at which point you may have to weigh between the cost of paying-off the ransom OR loading 2month old backups and updating the data. Of course, we can never be sure if paying the ransom will get the data back. -- On Fri, Apr 1, 2016 at 11:01 AM, Kennedy Kairaria via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

Negotiate with them, pay up the negotiated $$$, then learn your lesson and move on.
Otherwise you will get nothing unless you have backups.

Since this is not a life or death situation, buying time would be a waste of it, you'll have to give in to their demands OR consult some Israeli company like Beyond Security who'll obviously charge you more to crack a 1024 bit OpenPGP encryption. We live we learn. On Fri, Apr 1, 2016 at 10:51 AM, Kennedy Kairaria via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:
Skunk(ette)s,
We just got hit with the paycript ransom-ware on some of our file servers we've managed t identify the domain accounts running the script and disabled them. Seems to have stopped spreading across the network to our other file servers(for now...48 hours and counting)
Suspected source has also been identified and measures taken. What remains now is finding a way to decrypt the files. The damn fools are asking for 2BTC for them to decrypt and double the amount to charge by the day if not paid.
Anyone else who has had to go through the same? What measures did you take to recover?
