Recover Underground Team ransomware files

Have your files been locked by Underground Team ransomware? Act fast to safely restore your data.

Ransomware has become a critical threat to companies of all sizes and industries due to the significant increase in attacks in recent years. Studies indicate that in over 70% of cases, data is completely encrypted, leading about 56% of victims to pay criminals the ransom. Fortunately, there are effective technical alternatives to recover data without making any payment to attackers.

Underground Team ransomware is an advanced category of malware that aims to encrypt vital data, preventing legitimate access to information stored in corporate and personal systems. In recent years, this threat has gained significant prominence, severely impacting strategic sectors including healthcare, education, manufacturing, and financial services.

While common viruses generally aim to cause general damage, Underground Team ransomware is executed by specialized hackers who use advanced encryption techniques, such as AES-256 or RSA, to permanently block access to information, releasing it only upon possession of the specific key under the criminals’ control.

Another frequently used practice is the double extortion, in which attackers not only encrypt files but also extract and threaten to publicly disclose confidential data, further pressuring 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 Underground Team ransomware attack work?

The Underground Team ransomware attack typically occurs in several well-defined stages:

  • 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 Another common approach involves exploiting existing technical vulnerabilities in outdated systems, such as software security flaws or unsecured remote connections (RDP).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: Right after identifying strategic data, ransomware rapidly encrypts the information. Typically, essential files like databases, ERP systems, virtual machines, and RAID systems are affected, making information access impossible.
  • Financial extortion: After encrypting the data, criminals leave a ransom note demanding payment. Usually, instructions for communication through secure platforms or the dark web are provided, requiring payments in cryptocurrencies to hinder tracing.

How much does it cost to decrypt Underground Team ransomware?

The precise cost for recovering files encrypted by Underground Team ransomware varies depending on the severity and specific technical characteristics of the attack.

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.

If you want to quickly start recovery and obtain an accurate quote, contact our specialized team to perform a detailed initial diagnosis. Talk to our specialists now.

How long does the data recovery take?

The estimated time to recover encrypted data directly depends on the characteristics of the incident. Usually, recovery may take between a few days and a few weeks, varying according to the total volume of compromised files, the technical complexity level of the ransomware, the extent of the affected infrastructure, and the state of available 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.

However, Digital Recovery uses advanced and exclusive technologies, such as the proprietary TRACER solution, which provides a very high success rate in recovering files encrypted by ransomware.

What you need to know

Preventing a Underground Team 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 Underground Team ransomware attack.

There exist various tactics utilized by Underground Team criminals, the primary ones being: dissemination of infected files, malicious hyperlinks, RDP-based assaults, phishing, spam email campaigns, among others.

Their ultimate objective is to infiltrate the victim’s system without their knowledge. Therefore, Underground Team ransomware disguises itself within the system to evade detection by security systems.

In situations where user involvement is required, perpetrators employ phishing techniques to induce the victim into unwittingly downloading ransomware onto their system.

Suspicious activities such as excessive processing, memory usage, and disk access warrant a thorough investigation to determine whether an attack is in progress.

Underground Team Ransomware typically utilizes the machine’s own resources to carry out data exfiltration and encryption, thereby imposing a heavy load on the system’s resources.

Moreover, detecting the attack through changes to file extensions can be challenging since the encryption process would have already been initiated, making it a more complex process.

If a device is affected by Underground Team 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.
