What is LostInfo Ransomware?
The malware analyzed by WhiteDefender, which is researching and developing ransomware security, is LostInfo ransomware.
LostInfo ransomware encrypts all file data and makes it inaccessible. For example, a file named "photo.jpg" will be changed to "photo.jpg.{personalUUID}.lostinfo", and "sales.xlsx" will be changed to "sales.xlsx.{personalUUID}.lostinfo".
Once this attack process is complete, a ransom note with the title "README.TXT" will be created in all directories containing the file.
This ransom note explains how to purchase a decryption tool or contact the attackers.
