Emsisoft Decrypter for ApocalypseVM Description
Emsisoft Decrypter for ApocalypseVM is a lightweight utility that allows you to unlock files that have been hijacked by the ApocalypseVM ransomware.
How to spot an ApocalypseVM infection on your PC
As suggested by its name, ApocalypseVM is an upgraded version of the dreaded Apocalypse ransomware and hence, it is slightly more dangerous. While it is not exactly known how it is spread yet, the malware seems to have integrated VMProtect features that make them harder to detect and remove.
As soon as it infiltrates your computer, it encrypts all files and leaves a ransom note for each of the files it hijacks. Moreover, it tries to scare users by providing them with a 72-hour deadline to get in touch and make arrangements for the payment, as otherwise, the data remains encrypted forever.
Allows you to brute force the master decryption key
First off, it is important to note that you need to have an encrypted file of at least 4096 bytes along with its unencrypted version in order to use the utility. As you probably hinted, the decryption process entails dragging and dropping both files over the application.
The idea here is to compare the files and attempt to figure out the combination of characters that compose the master key. In case you do not provide the aforementioned files, then the program account for the C partition as the default location for the infection.
Once you get the key, it is preferable that you test it on a few files first and, in case you notice everything goes well and the data is not corrupted after the decryption, then you can proceed to decode the rest.
An app that can help you decode ApocalypseVM locked files
Regardless of how tempting it may be to just pay the ransom and get this over with, you should keep in mind that victims of ransomware rarely get their files back. Therefore, if you manage to find a copy of the original file in one of backups, then you should consider decoding it using Emsisoft Decrypter for ApocalypseVM.
