The GlobeImposter ransomware was first spotted in January 2017, and runs as a Trojan. It invades the victim’s system through attachments, apps, and websites with malicious links.
The Trojan is a Trojan horse that is designed to appear to be a genuine program that is made available on download sites, contained within these programs is ransomware that is installed once the program is downloaded.
After the ransomware installs itself on the operating system it hides while disabling system defenses and moves laterally, this movement aims to reach privileged access and backups.
After the lateral move the encryption of the data is started, it is added to all encrypted files, not just one extension, but countless such as: “.hNcrypt”, “.medal”, “.paycyka”, “.2cXpCihgsVxB3”, “.vdul”, “.keepcalm”, “.legally”, “.crypt”, ” .wallet” “.pizdec”.
A ransom note is left in the system, in it contains the means for the victim to contact the group to make the ransom payment, the payment is to be made in Bitcoin which can easily reach thousands of dollars.
The decryption key is stored on a remote server, and the criminals threaten to delete it if the victim does not pay the ransom. This is a tactic used to pressure the victim into payment, but the group gives no guarantee that the key will actually be released after the ransom is paid.
Paying the ransom is not recommended in any way, so it is necessary to look for other means to recover the data, and the best of these is offered by companies that specialize in data recovery. Digital Recovery is able to recover files that have been encrypted, without the decryption key.
