Lilith is a ransomware infection that encrypts system-stored data and demands payment for file decryption. While rendering files inaccessible, the virus also appends the new .lilith extension to each infected sample. For instance, a file named 1.pdf will change to 1.pdf.lilith and reset its original icon as well. After this, cybercriminals lay out instructions on how to acquire decryption in a text note called Restore_Your_Files.txt. It is said that victims have three full days to contact developers. This should be done using the Tox messenger in Tor Browser. Should victims get late with meeting these demands, cybercriminals threaten to start leaking the collected data, supposedly to dark web resources. Although the price for decryption is calculated on an individual basis depending on how much valuable data has been encrypted, it still might be quite high considering ransomware's tendency to target business organizations.

Bahamut is a malicious program that targets Android devices and is classified as spyware. Malware of such is designed to spy on users' sensitive data and misuse it for future financial benefits. Upon successful installation, the virus acts as a regular application and requests users to provide a number of "mandatory" permissions. This can include permission for accessing camera, reading messages and managing phone contacts, recording audio, accessing phone memory, and other suspicious permits that should not be given to doubtful software. The main goal of Bahamut is normally set on extracting potentially valuable information from popular messaging apps such as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Telegram, Viber, ProtectedText, Imo, Secapp, and Signal as well. Cybercriminals do this by sending collected information to their remote Command & Control server. The same is used for deploying various commands to control the infected device as well. Having Bahamut installed on your system will by far lead to many security and privacy risks. This is why such software must be removed as soon as you see it. Do it using our guide below and also learn how its installation occurred.

Top Search is an unwanted piece of software that alters the default homepage appearance and promotes the fake topsearch.co search engine. Software with such behavioral traits is usually categorized as browser hijackers. Developers behind often seek to generate revenue by displaying personalized ads on various pages. Such ads can be intentionally displayed using multiple layers even on the most legitimate websites and deteriorate users' experience. Browser hijackers may also be able to cause extra redirects to sponsored pages that promote untrustworthy content. These functionalities are not only annoying but dangerous. Pages involved in promotion may be linked to spreading various malware or unwanted software that might become compromising for the safety of users. It is also worth mentioning that many search engines promoted by hijackers are fake because they cannot generate their own results. Instead, they employ already existing and popular engines like Google or Yahoo to display results with extra advertisements. Top Search is not an exception in many of the unwanted features we outlined above. Thus, there is no reason to keep it as we recommend you delete it from your computer. Use our step-by-step guide below to do it correctly and without traces.

JENNY is the name of a new file-locker discovered by MalwareHunterTeam. Malware of such is normally designed to restrict access to data and demand victims to pay a ransom in crypto. After successfully infiltrating the system, the virus encrypts important pieces of data and also assigns the .JENNY extension. This means a file like 1.pdf will change to 1.pdf.JENNY and reset its original icon to blank. After this part is done, the ransomware replaces desktop wallpapers and features a pop-up window right on the screen. Unlike other ransomware infections, JENNY developers do not provide any decryption instructions. Victims are left confused with absolutely no contact information to use for reaching the cybercriminals. The reason for that could be because this ransomware is still under development and is likely being tested. This means decryption with the help of developers is impossible and that a complete version of JENNY may be released some day in the future.

Freshy Search is an unwanted browser add-on, categorized as a browser hijacker. This is because it changes the appearance of the default homepage, assigns the fake search.freshy.com search engine, and also prevents users from undoing these modifications. Hijacker mostly hits Google Chrome, however, can also be seen in Mozilla Firefox and Edge, on both Windows and Mac systems. The reason why many search engines promoted by hijackers are referred to as "fake" is because they are able to generate their own search results. Instead, they tend to use legitimate engines like Google, Yahoo, or Bing to show results and generate money on displayed advertisements. Even if some hijacker engines are able to do so, it may be risky to open their results due to suspicious redirects potentially hidden in them. In addition to this, many browser hijackers including Freshy Search can be powered by data-tracking abilities. This means they might be able to collect browser-related data (passwords, history, IP addresses, geolocations, etc.) and misuse it for future financial purposes. Based on privacy and security risks such software may create, it is important to remove it from your system. We encourage you to use our instructions below to do it.
