Mikel Ransomware
Summary
The note indicates that the Mikel Ransomware has not only encrypted but also exfiltrated the victims files, making the attack a double-extortion scheme. If the victims fail to meet these demands or refuse to pay, the attackers threaten to release the collected data publicly. To provide some assurance that data recovery is possible, the ransom note offers to decrypt three small files for free. Ransomware attacks are a form of extortion and paying the ransom fuels the criminals ability to continue their illegal activities, which puts others at risk. The full text of the ransom note left by the Mikel Ransomware is: Your data have been Stolen, encrypted and inaccessible Your critical information has been downloaded, including databases, financial/developmental, accounting, and strategic documents.
