Recover LockBit Red ransomware files

In case LockBit Red ransomware has encrypted your data, rapid response is essential to increase your chances of recovery.

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.

LockBit Red 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, LockBit Red 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.

It is also quite common for ransomware to employ double extortion strategies, where criminals copy important files before encrypting them, using the threat of public exposure of stolen data as an additional pressure tactic on victims.

Ransomware attacks have grown rapidly, with an estimated increase of around 5% in just the last year and average ransom demands reaching millions of dollars. Many affected companies end up paying the ransom due to ignorance of effective alternatives, directly contributing to the continuation of these criminal activities.

We provide specialized solutions for the secure recovery of ransomware-encrypted files.

Answers from our experts

How does the LockBit Red ransomware attack work?

LockBit Red ransomware executes its attack through a clear and defined sequence of steps:

  • Silent infiltration: Initially, the ransomware infiltrates through phishing campaigns, sending fraudulent emails or malicious attachments to victims. Another common approach involves exploiting existing technical vulnerabilities in outdated systems, such as software security flaws or unsecured remote connections (RDP).
  • 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: Once data is mapped, ransomware quickly starts encryption. Critical files, databases, enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, virtual machines, and RAID systems are typically affected, making the files completely inaccessible.
  • Financial extortion: Upon completion of file encryption, criminals typically leave a ransom note demanding payment. Generally, instructions guide victims to communicate through secure channels or the dark web, specifying cryptocurrency payments to hinder financial tracking.

How much does it cost to decrypt LockBit Red ransomware?

Determining the precise cost of recovering files affected by LockBit Red ransomware directly depends on the scope and technical complexity of the incident.

Generally, factors such as the amount of data affected, the type of compromised system (servers, virtual machines, storages, or databases), and the availability of functional backups directly influence the final cost.

To quickly start the process and get an accurate quote, we recommend requesting an initial diagnosis with our specialized team. Talk to our experts.

How long does the data recovery take?

The time needed for data recovery can significantly vary according to the specific scenario of the suffered attack. On average, the process usually takes from a few days to a few weeks. The exact duration will depend on factors such as the volume of encrypted files, the size of the affected infrastructure, the technical complexity of the ransomware, and the availability or state of existing backups.

Once we perform the initial diagnosis, which occurs within the first 24 business hours after your contact, we will provide a precise and detailed estimate of the timeframe necessary to successfully complete your data recovery.

Is there any guarantee for data recovery?

Because of the unique technical characteristics of each ransomware attack, it is impossible to guarantee 100% success in data recovery in advance. Each case has its own particularities, such as different encryption algorithms and diverse techniques used by attackers.

Nonetheless, Digital Recovery has specialized and exclusive technologies, such as the proprietary TRACER solution, achieving a high rate of success in recovering files encrypted by ransomware.

What you need to know

Preventing a LockBit Red 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.

  1. Keep software and operating systems up to date: Regularly update software and operating systems with the latest security patches to protect against known vulnerabilities.

  2. 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.

  3. Educate employees: Train employees on how to recognize phishing emails and other social engineering tactics used by cybercriminals.

  4. Back up data regularly: Make sure to regularly back up important data to a secure, offsite location.

  5. Use antivirus and antimalware software: Use reputable antivirus and antimalware software and keep it up to date.

  6. Limit user access: Restrict user access to only what is necessary to perform their job functions and regularly review and remove unnecessary access.

  7. Monitor network traffic: Regularly monitor network traffic to detect unusual activity or traffic patterns.

  8. 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 LockBit Red ransomware attack.

There are several strategies employed by LockBit Red 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 LockBit Red 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.

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 LockBit Red 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 LockBit Red 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.

If a device is affected by LockBit Red ransomware that uses encryption, the encrypted data will remain inaccessible until the ransom is paid or the device is formatted.

But in cases where the attacking group uses the double extortion tactic of copying and extracting all files and encrypting the original data, the stolen files will be posted on the group’s website or Dark Web forums and all original data will remain encrypted on the affected device, requiring the device to be formatted.
