Discovered in 2019, Nyton Ransomware is a dangerous virus that ruthlessly encrypts users' data. Likewise other ransomware, Nyton targets various sorts of files like images, videos, text documents, and others that will be locked after penetration. After encryption, Nyton changes the icons of all files/apps to blank sheets and assigns the .nyton extension. To illustrate, normal 1.mp4 files will be changed to 1.mp4.nyton after restriction. Unfortunately, the decryption of such files is often impossible. Even the best third-parties tools are not able to access the data because developers use sophisticated algorithms that make files unrecoverable. Besides that, once the program blocked the data, it instantly creates a ransom note on the desktop (!NYTON_HELP.TXT) that displays the information about encryption. Another victim's informant is the onion website web page.

Pdfconverterguru.com is considered to be a mixture of both adware and browser hijacker that causes an absolute calamity around your browser. Initially, Pdfconverterguru.com stands for a legitimate host that offers you to install a browser-based extension, called File Conversion Now, that provides quick links to the most popular file converters and updated search. Unfortunately, besides the aforementioned, It also installs special scripts that generate suspicious advertisements and banners across the web. Moreover, it is capable of initiating multiple redirects to different websites on its own which means that your data may be exposed to third-parties figures that can exploit it for revenue purposes.

Yaoffer50160.exe is a trojan-based file that infects users with adware. There are some indications, that this file is related to an unwanted advertising app called uBar. Trojans are a type of virus that executes so-called chain infiltrations. The range of malware may vary from innocent adware to more dangerous ransomware that encrypts users' data forever. Often times, trojans may require interaction from remote servers that are hacked by frauds to fulfill its purpose. Thus, most developers abuse poor connections and RDP configuration to take control of the PC and inflict it with trojans. When it comes to adware, it alters some settings to push unwanted advertisements on the desktop. There are also cases when after removal of the file users see an error message on startup, like "Windows cannot find Yaoffer50160.exe".

Alike others, Sfile Ransomware is a virus designed to encrypt files and hold them locked until the ransom is paid. Sfile has not been that popular around media discussions, but there are some users who have complained about its recent activity. After installation, the virus scans your device for multiple files and, once found, encrypts them by changing extensions to .sfile2 and .sfile3. To illustrate, the original 1.mp4 will be changed to 1.mp4.sfile2 or .sfile3 and become isolated as a result. To decrypt the ciphered data, you should contact cybercriminals through the e-mail attached in the ransom note that is created after encryption. Very often, after reaching out to frauds, they will claim a certain amount of cash that has to be paid within an allocated period of time unless you want the price to double up. Unfortunately, trusting extortionists is a huge risk because they might not unlock your data even after the purchase. Instead, we recommend uninstalling Sfile Ransomware from your computer and decrypting the data with third-parties tools.

Everything you need to know about Clown Ransomware is that it is a malicious program that encrypts data with special algorithms and requires paying a ransom to decrypt it. Malware can be classified as one of the variations of BigBobRoss Ransomware. After infiltration, Clown will rename the stored data according to one of these patterns: [SupportClown@elude.in][id={random-8-digit-set}]1.mp4.clown+, [Heeeh98@tutanota.com][id={random-8-digit-set}]1.jpg.notfound or [id={random-8-digit-set}]1.png.DMR64. Thereafter, it drops text files called HOW TO RECOVER ENCRYPTED FILES.txt and !!! READ THIS !!!.hta onto the victim's desktop. In this note, cybercriminals demand to contact them via e-mail by writing your ID in the subject. As a result, you are obliged to pay a specific fee in BTC to retrieve your data unless you want it to remain locked forever because third-parties tools are often unable to break appended ciphers.

GoGoogle is a ransomware-type virus that encrypts users' data with cryptographic algorithms. Note that it has no correlation with Google Services. Those who get infected with programs of such type, experience immediate data encryption that undergoes a couple of changes. Firstly, the affected files get appended with new .google extension, cybercriminal's e-mail, and victim's ID. For instance, the original 1.mp4 will be renamed to 1.mp4_ID_512064768_Bossi_tosi@protonmail.com.google or 1.mp4_ID_882345678_bitsupportz@protonmail.com.google after penetration. After that, GoGoogle drops the FileRecovery.txt text note with ransom information. Inside the message, extortionists strongly insist on not attempting to unblock your data manually since this can lead to permanent loss. Instead, you should contact them via e-mail and pay for the guaranteed key that will decrypt your data. Unfortunately, trusting cyber criminals is a huge risk because they can dump you easily and not recover your files.

Being part of DCRTR-WDM Ransomware family, Rhino Ransomware is a malicious program that stealthily infiltrates systems and encrypts data stored on them. Likewise other ransomware-type programs, Rhino attacks files by appending new .rhino extension (with cybercriminal's e-mail) and creating a text file afterward. For example, if the original 1.mp4 gets interfered with Rhino Ransomware, it will be changed to 1.mp4.[generalchin@countermail.com].rhino. After the virus encrypted your data, it drops the info.hta file in the %APPDATA% folder and the ReadMe_Decryptor.txt file on a desktop. The information contained in the note explains how to decrypt your data. To do so, you have to contact them via their e-mail and pay for the decryption software in Bitcoin. Additionally, there has been a very popular method around developers to cultivate the trust of victims - they allow them to send 1 file (less than 500 Kb) for free decryption. Unfortunately, unlocking data with third-parties tools is typically impossible unless ransomware has flaws or bugs.
