Chily Ransomware

The Chily Ransomware is a harmful threat that could have a devastating impact on the computers it infiltrates successfully. Once activated, the threat will run an encryption process that will lock most of the files stored on the breached devices. Victims will lose access to many of their important files, including documents, PDFs, photos, images, archives, databases and many others. The locked files will have '.[Chily@Dr.Com]' appended to their names as a new extension.

When the Chily Ransomware has finished encrypting the target files, it will proceed to deliver two ransom notes with instructions for its victims. The main ransom-demanding message will be dropped as a file named 'Read Me.Hta,' while a secondary message will be displayed as a new desktop background image. The background message simply tells the affected users to establish contact with the attackers by sending an email to the three provided addresses - 'chily@tuta.io,' 'Chily@Dr.Com,' and 'chily65@proton.me.'

The main ransom note contains additional details. It states that the cybercriminals are willing to decrypt up to 3 files for free. However, the files chosen by the victims must be less than 5 MB in total size and should not contain important information. The note also warns against using third-party decryption tools, as they could cause irreversible damage to the locked files.

The full text of Chily Ransomware's note is:
