Recover Cryptowall ransomware files
If your data has been encrypted by Cryptowall ransomware, you need to act quickly.
Ransomware attacks are among today’s greatest digital threats, showing constant growth and affecting organizations of various sizes and sectors. Recent surveys indicate that over 70% of these attacks lead to full file encryption, with around 56% of victims paying the ransom demanded. However, specialized solutions exist that allow data recovery without directly negotiating with hackers.
Cryptowall ransomware is an advanced form of malware specifically designed to encrypt essential files on business and personal systems, making them completely inaccessible to their owners. This ransomware has become widely known for its ability to cause significant disruptions to critical operations, particularly affecting sectors such as healthcare, manufacturing, education, and finance.
Unlike traditional viruses, Cryptowall ransomware is controlled by specialized criminal groups that use advanced encryption algorithms, such as AES-256 or RSA, to lock access to data, with the unique key kept exclusively by the attackers.
Additionally, hackers often apply the double extortion method, encrypting files while simultaneously stealing sensitive data, and threatening to publish it online to increase pressure for ransom payment.
Ransomware attacks have intensified significantly, registering an estimated increase of 5% in the last year alone. Ransom demands easily reach millions of dollars, and numerous companies, unaware of alternative solutions, end up paying, further strengthening criminal actions.
We provide specialized solutions for the secure recovery of ransomware-encrypted files.

Answers from our experts
The Cryptowall ransomware attack typically occurs in several well-defined stages:
- Silent infiltration: The attack usually begins through phishing, by sending malicious emails or infected files to victims. Additionally, technical vulnerabilities in outdated systems, such as breaches in old software or insecure remote access via RDP, are commonly exploited.
- Backup mapping and neutralization: Once inside the network, the ransomware carefully analyzes the environment, detecting important files and connected or online backups. The goal is to directly affect these backups, removing the possibility of quickly restoring the information.
- Mass encryption of files: Following initial reconnaissance, ransomware immediately encrypts the identified files. Critical data, databases, ERPs, virtual machines, and RAID arrays are frequently compromised, completely blocking user access.
- Financial extortion: Once files are encrypted, attackers leave a ransom note with detailed payment instructions. Instructions frequently suggest contacting via anonymous platforms or the dark web, demanding cryptocurrency payments to make tracing virtually impossible.
How much does it cost to decrypt Cryptowall ransomware?
The precise cost for recovering files encrypted by Cryptowall ransomware varies depending on the severity and specific technical characteristics of the attack.
The final value largely depends on elements such as the extent of compromised data, the specific types of systems involved (servers, virtual machines, storages, or databases), and the current state of existing backups.
To expedite the process and obtain a precise and personalized assessment, we recommend contacting our specialists directly for an initial diagnosis. Request specialized support right away.
How long does the data recovery take?
The period required to restore files can vary significantly depending on the specifics of the attack. Usually, the process takes from a few days to a few weeks, with the exact time influenced by factors like the amount of encrypted data, the complexity of the attack, the size of the affected network, and the quality of existing backups.
Right after the initial diagnosis, conducted by our specialized team within the first 24 business hours of your contact, you’ll receive a detailed and personalized forecast of the time required to finalize the recovery process.
Is there any guarantee for data recovery?
Considering the technical complexity of ransomware attacks, no responsible company can guarantee in advance the complete recovery of files. Each incident presents unique technical aspects, such as different cryptographic algorithms and specific methods employed by criminals.
Even so, Digital Recovery employs innovative and exclusive solutions, especially the proprietary TRACER technology, which ensures a very high success rate in recovering data affected by ransomware.

What you need to know
How to prevent a Cryptowall ransomware attack?
Preventing a Cryptowall ransomware attack requires a comprehensive cybersecurity framework, but that’s not all, let’s list some important points that you need to pay attention to.
Keep software and operating systems up to date: Regularly update software and operating systems with the latest security patches to protect against known vulnerabilities.
Use strong passwords and two-factor authentication: Use strong, unique passwords for all accounts and enable two-factor authentication to add an extra layer of security.
Educate employees: Train employees on how to recognize phishing emails and other social engineering tactics used by cybercriminals.
Back up data regularly: Make sure to regularly back up important data to a secure, offsite location.
Use antivirus and antimalware software: Use reputable antivirus and antimalware software and keep it up to date.
Limit user access: Restrict user access to only what is necessary to perform their job functions and regularly review and remove unnecessary access.
Monitor network traffic: Regularly monitor network traffic to detect unusual activity or traffic patterns.
Have an incident response plan: Develop and regularly test an incident response plan to respond quickly and effectively to a ransomware attack.
By following these best practices, organizations can help reduce their risk of falling victim to a Cryptowall ransomware attack.
What is the most common means of access used by hackers to break into the environments?
There are several strategies employed by Cryptowall criminals, the main ones are: downloads of infected files, malicious links, attacks via RDP, Phishing, spam email campaigns, and more.
All of them have the same intention, to access the victim’s system without the victim’s awareness. To do so, the Cryptowall ransomware camouflages itself in the system so as not to be detected by defense systems.
In the tactics that depend on the action of a user, phishing tactics are applied so that the victim, without realizing it, downloads the ransomware into the system.
Is there any behavior of my server, that I can analyze, to know if I am being attacked by Cryptowall Ransomware?
High consumption of processing, memory and disk access are suspicious behaviors that need to be investigated thoroughly in order to assess whether an attack is underway.
The Cryptowall ransomware uses the machine’s own resources to perform exfiltration. In order to encrypt the machine this demands the use of its own resources.
It is also possible to detect the Cryptowall attack by the changes made to the file extensions, this type of detection is a bit more complex because the encryption process will have already been started.
What happens if I don't pay the Cryptowall ransom?
If a device is affected by Cryptowall ransomware that uses encryption, the encrypted data will remain inaccessible until the ransom is paid or the device is formatted.
However, if the attacking group employs the double extortion tactic of copying and exfiltrating all files from the device prior to encryption, they may post the stolen files on the group’s website or on Dark Web forums. In this case, even if the victim pays the ransom or formats the affected device, the original data will remain encrypted while the stolen files will be exposed, causing significant data breaches and privacy concerns.
