INDRIK Ransomware

The INDRIK Ransomware is a generic crypto-threat that was reported on January 4th, 2019. The reports from security incidents involving the INDRIK Ransomware suggest the threat is distributed via spam emails and compromised remote desktop accounts primarily. The INDRIK Ransomware is a relatively simple cyber-threat that is known to apply a custom AES-256 cipher to the user-generated files like photos, downloaded music/video, recently created documents, PDFs and hosted databases. The INDRIK Ransomware is observed to delete the Shadow Volume snapshots by running commands in the Command Line tool. Hence, the native backup features on Windows are not sufficient to protect your files from the INDRIK Ransomware. The program at hand overwrites the original content with the encrypted data, which carries the '.INDRIK' marker. For example, 'Destiny 2.wmv' is renamed to 'Destiny 2.wmv.INDRIK' and a ransom note called '# HOW TO DECRYPT YOUR FILES #.html' is dropped to the desktop. The message presented by the INDRIK Ransomware includes the following text:

'Dead Line
