Recover WSAZ ransomware files
In case WSAZ 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.
WSAZ 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.
Unlike traditional threats, WSAZ ransomware is managed by highly organized criminal groups that employ powerful encryption (AES-256 or RSA) to render data inaccessible except through a unique key held by the attackers.
In addition, the practice known as double extortion is common, wherein besides encrypting files, hackers steal copies of sensitive data to threaten victims with public exposure.
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.
Our company has innovative and secure solutions for complete ransomware decryption.

Answers from our experts
WSAZ 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 Another common approach involves exploiting existing technical vulnerabilities in outdated systems, such as software security flaws or unsecured remote connections (RDP).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: After initial infiltration, the ransomware performs detailed mapping of the internal network, targeting strategic files and available or online-connected backups, aiming to neutralize these backups to prevent rapid recovery.
- Mass encryption of files: Once the mapping of important files is complete, ransomware promptly initiates its encryption. Vital files including databases, ERP systems, virtual machines, and RAID systems are generally impacted, resulting in complete data inaccessibility.
- 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 WSAZ ransomware?
The exact value to decrypt files impacted by WSAZ ransomware is defined according to the extent and level of technical complexity of the suffered 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.
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 timeline for data recovery varies according to the specific circumstances of each attack. Generally, the process can range from a few days to several weeks, mainly depending on the volume of affected files, the extent of the impacted infrastructure, the complexity of the ransomware involved, and the condition of available 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?
Due to the technical nature of ransomware attacks, no responsible company can promise a 100% upfront guarantee of full data recovery. Each attack has its own technical peculiarities, such as different encryption algorithms and methods used by criminals.
Nevertheless, Digital Recovery relies on proprietary and advanced technologies, including the exclusive TRACER solution, capable of providing high success rates in recovering ransomware-encrypted files.

What you need to know
How to prevent a WSAZ ransomware attack?
Preventing a WSAZ 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 WSAZ ransomware attack.
What is the most common means of access used by hackers to break into the environments?
There are several strategies employed by WSAZ 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 WSAZ 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 WSAZ Ransomware?
Suspicious activities such as excessive processing, memory usage, and disk access warrant a thorough investigation to determine whether an attack is in progress.
WSAZ 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.
What happens if I don't pay the WSAZ ransom?
If a device is affected by WSAZ 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.
