Hhee Ransomware
Summary
Cybercriminals often use this threat in financially-motivated attacks, in which they unleash the ransomware on breached devices and then extort victims who wish to recover their valuable data. It is important to note that the threat may be spread in conjunction with other malware, including RedLine, Vidar, and other information stealers, due to its affiliation with the STOP/Djvu Ransomware family. The ransomware known as Hhee demands that its victims pay a sum of $980 to the cybercriminals in exchange for the decryption keys necessary to recover their encrypted files. Next, victims should thoroughly scan their devices with a professional anti-malware solution for any remaining malware or vulnerabilities and patch or update their system software and applications. Finally, it is strongly advised not to send any money to cybercriminals as it does not guarantee the recovery of the encrypted files besides funding illegal activities.
