Datax Ransomware

General News

Summary

Despite lacking any meaningful improvements, the capacity of Datax to cause damage to the infected systems shouldnt be underestimated. When deployed on the victims machine successfully, Datax will initiate an encryption routine that will lock nearly all of the file types stored there. According to the note, the cybercriminals responsible for unleashing Datax also have been able to extract valuable data from the infected systems. Now, they threaten to sell that information to any interested third parties, if their victims do not initiate contact in the 72 hours following the ransomware attack. IF WE DONT SEE MESSAGES FROM YOU IN 72 HOURS - WE WILL SELL YOUR DATABASES AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO YOUR COMPETITORS AND OTHER HACKERS IN THE DARKNET.
