Decryptor available for some selected variants of STOP ransomware

[Maurice Naggar]

Just noticed an article at Bleepingcomputer about a  decryptor available from Emsisoft for some selected variants of STOP ransomware."STOP Ransomware Decryptor Released for 148 Variants"

 

Quote

A decryptor for the STOP Ransomware has been released by Emsisoft and Michael Gillespie that allows you to decrypt files encrypted by 148 variants of the infection for free.

While the decryptor can recover files for 148 variants, it needs to be noted that anyone who was infected after August 2019 cannot be helped with this service.

If someone had had the STOP ransomware from prior to August 2019, do check out the article.

Especially if your had the .DJVU or one of its 'cousins" ,  or the .DALLE variant.

See the article for the full list of variants that can be recovered.

For STOP ransomware victims, read the whole entire article.
