The No More Ransom project released today an updated and more potent decryption tool for the GandCrab ransomware in what Europol has described as the "latest victory of law enforcement in the battle against ransomware."

The decryption tool was developed by Romanian Police, Europol, and Bitdefender, and will be made available on the No More Ransom project website for download starting today.

The tool is an update on a first version that was released in February by Bitdefender. The new GandCrab decrypter is more potent and can recover data for more GandCrab versions --v1 (GDCB extension), v4 (KRAB extension), and v5 (random 10-character extension, also the current/latest GandCrab version), respectively.

The new decrypter also comes after Bitdefender released a more limited decryption tool earlier this week for GandCrab ransomware victims located in Syria. The Romanian antivirus maker was able to create that decrypter after the GandCrab developer released legitimate and authentic decryption keys for victims located inside Syria, out of compassion.

In a blog post today, Bitdefender also said they're still working on creating a decrypter that can unlock files encrypted by GandCrab versions 2 and 3.

GandCrab is, by far, the most active and widespread ransomware strain today, taking the place of Locky and Cerber, the leading ransomware strains of 2016 and 2017.

Thanatos ransomware: Free decryption tool released

Victims of a destructive form of ransomware, which fails to unlock files even if the ransom is paid, can now retrieve their files for free with a new file decryptor released by security researchers.Thanatos ransomware first started targeting Windows systems in February and multiple versions of it have been released in the months since, indicating that those behind it remain an active threat.

Thanatos is distinct from many other forms of ransomware in that it doesn't demand a payment in bitcoin, but is known instead to request ransoms paid in other cryptocurrenciesincluding Bitcoin Cash, Zcash and Ethereum.

However, even if the victim does give into the ransom demand, issues within the encryption process of Thanatos means that the data isn't returned to the victim. Some campaigns reveal that this is intentional on part of the attackers, who taunt victims about the lack of a decryption key.

In order to combat the destruction caused by files which can't be decrypted, researchers at Cisco Talos have built and released a free tool for decrypting the files - ThanatosDecryptor.

The tool is available to download now and works on all current versions of the ransomware - researchers recommend that it is run on the original infected machine in order decrypt files across a network as quickly as possible....
