Onelock Ransomware

The Onelock Ransomware is a threatening tool specifically created by cybercriminals to lock the data of their victims. This particular malware threat has been confirmed to be a variant belonging to the MedusaLocker Ransomware family. If successfully deployed on the targeted computer, Onelock will activate its encryption process and leave most of the documents, photos, archives, databases, and many other file types in an unusable state.

The Onelock Ransomwarewill append '.onelock' to the names of the affected files. It also will create the 'how_to_back_files.html' file, as a way to deliver a ransom note with instructions from its operators. Reading the note reveals that the Onelock Ransomware uses a combination of the RSA and AES cryptographic algorithms for its encryption. According to the ransom-demanding message, the threat actors also have obtained various, confidential information from the breached devices. The collected data is stored on a private server and will supposedly be released to the public or sold to interested parties, in case the victim refuses to pay the demanded ransom.

In addition, victims who take more than 72 hours to contact the Onelock Ransomware hackers will have to pay a higher ransom. The main communication channel mentioned in the note is a dedicated website hosted on the TOR network. Alternatively, two email addresses - 'ithelp08@decorous.cyou' and 'ithelp08@wholeness.business,' could be used. Victims also are told that they can send a couple of encrypted files to be unlocked for free.
