Threat Database Ransomware Dfwe Ransomware

Dfwe Ransomware

A potent variant from the infamous STOP/Djvu Ransomware family, the Dfwe threat can devastate the computers it manages to infect. By using a military-grade encryption algorithm, the threat can lock numerous file types, rendering them completely inaccessible and unusable. The harmful operators of the threat will then proceed to extort their victims for money in exchange for assisting with the restoration of the valuable information. Indeed, affected users or companies very rarely can unlock their files without the decryption keys held by the attackers.

Whenevthe Dfwe Ransomware encrypts a file, it also will change that file's original name. This is a typical behavior observed in ransomware threats. In this case, the locked files will have '.dfwe' appended to their names. Another change made by the threat will be to create a new text file on the breached system. The file named '_readme.txt' will contain a ransom note with the hacker's demands and instructions.

Ransom Note's Details

The ransom-demanding message of the Dfwe threat, like other members of the STOP/Djvu Ransomware family, states that victims will have to pay $980 to the cybercriminals. However, that initial sum can potentially be reduced by 50% to $490 with the only mentioned requirement being that users must contact the hackers within the first 72 hours of the ransomware infection. The note provides two email addresses as communication channels - 'admin@helpdata.top' and 'supportsys@airmail.cc.' As part of their message, victims are instructed that they also can send a single locked file. If the chosen file doesn't contain any important data, the hackers will supposedly decrypt and return it for free.
