Adding to

The best defensive strategy to protect yourself from malware and ransomware (crypto malware) infections is a

comprehensive approach to include prevention and your
best defense is back up, back up, and more back up on a regular basis. When implementing a backup strategy
include testing to ensure it works before an emergency arises; routinely check to verify backups are being made and stored properly; remove (disconnect) and isolate all backups from the network or home computer...if not, you risk ransomware
infecting them when it strikes.

• The smartest way to stay unaffected by ransomware? Backup!
• Encrypted by ransomware...Prevention before the fact is the only guaranteed peace of mind
• Use an Anti-Exploit Program to Help Protect Your PC From Zero-Day Attacks
• Ransomware and RDP – Close those RDP ports now and stay vigilant!

For more suggestions to protect yourself from ransomware infections, see my comments (Post #2) in this topic...Ransomware
Avoidance...it includes a list of prevention tools.

Thanks Borg. I checked that page on one occasion. Very nice initiative.

 

Very welcome, I hope this list helps some people recover their files & systems.

The best advice though remains to be prepared for the worst. Backup, backup & backup. *Wink
