Programs of this type are designed to encrypt data (rendering it unusable) and keep it in that state unless a ransom is paid.

What is Rumba?

Rumba is a high-risk computer infection categorized as ransomware. It is a new variant of Djvu ransomware and was discovered by Michael Gillespie. Programs of this type are designed to encrypt data (rendering it unusable) and keep it in that state unless a ransom is paid. To retrieve their files, users are encouraged to purchase a decryption tool. After encryption, all files are renamed by adding the '.rumba' extension. For example, '1.jpg' becomes '1.jpg.rumba'. Instructions about how to decrypt files can be found in the '_openme.txt' text file (ransom message).

Cyber criminals state in the ransom message that Rumba has encrypted all files using the strongest encryption. The only way to retrieve them is to purchase a specific decryption tool. As a 'guarantee' that they have such a tool and can be trusted, the criminals offer free decryption of one file. Furthermore, they even offer a 50% discount to victims who contact them within 72 hours. Victims are encouraged to send them an email via pdfhelp@india.com or pdfhelp@firemail.cc containing a personal ID, which is provided in the '_openme.txt' file. Most cyber criminals use encryption algorithms that cannot be 'cracked' without using the correct tool (decryption tool or key). Cyber criminals use cryptographies (symmetric or asymmetric) that generate unique keys. They store these keys on remote servers that can be accessed only by them. The only option remaining is to contact cyber criminals, however, they cannot be trusted. Generally, they ignore victims once ransoms are paid. In this way, people are scammed. The best option in these cases is to use a data backup (if one has been created) and restore everything from there.

Screenshot of a message encouraging users to pay a ransom to decrypt their compromised data:

Most ransomware-type infections are very similar: they encrypt data and make ransom demands. Common differences are cost of decryption tool and the cryptography algorithm used to encrypt data. Examples of other ransomware-type programs include Dharma-Gif, GandCrab 5.1, and Obfuscated. Decryption without the involvement of cyber criminals is impossible, unless these programs have bugs/flaws or are still in development. Nuendo eucon now available for mac. In any case, we recommend that you create regular data backups and store them on remote servers or unplugged storage devices (otherwise ransomware-type programs also encrypt the backups).

How did ransomware infect my computer?

There are several ways to proliferate infections such as Rumba. Most cyber criminals use spam email campaigns, trojans, untrustworthy software download sources, or fake software updaters. They use spam campaigns to proliferate ransomware (or other infections) by sending emails that contain malicious attachments. These attachments are often Microsoft Office documents, PDFs, archive files, executables (.exe files), and so on. Malicious attachments download and install viruses the moment they are opened. Trojans are malicious programs that, when installed, cause chain infections. The main purpose of these programs is to proliferate other infections. Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks (such as torrents, eMule, and so on), freeware download websites, free file hosting websites, unofficial websites and other dubious download sources infect systems by presenting malicious files as legitimate. Using these sources, cyber criminals trick people into downloading and installing viruses. Fake software updaters cause computer infections by exploiting outdated software flaws/bugs or downloading and installing viruses rather than the promised updates, fixes, etc.

How to protect yourself from ransomware infections?

To prevent computer infections with ransomware or other malware, be very cautious when browsing the internet and especially when downloading, installing, or updating software. Never open files (attachments) or links that are presented in emails received from unknown/suspicious email addresses. They are usually irrelevant. Furthermore, download software using official sources and direct download links. Do not use third party downloaders and installers, since they often proliferate rogue applications. Keep software updated using implemented functions or tools provided by the official software developers. Have a reputable anti-virus/anti-spyware suite installed and running - these tools can detect and eliminating threats before any damage is done. If your computer is already infected with Rumba, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate this ransomware.

Screenshot of files encrypted by Rumba ('.rumba' extension):

Update 22 January 2019 Victims have reported that Rumba has infiltrated their computers through software cracking tools used to bypass the activation of popular programs (such as Photoshop, Cubase, and many others), as well as the Windows operating system. This is a common malware distribution technique: criminals attempt to trick users into believing that these tools will enable them to use copyrighted software free of charge. In fact, these tools give no real value, and using them leads to system infections (in this case, infiltration of Rumba ransomware). Moreover, software piracy is a cyber crime - you are stealing from official software developers. The process is also very risky and often leads to computer infections. Therefore, we strongly advise against the use of pirated software.

As with most of ransomware from Djvu family, Rumba also displays a fake Windows update pop-up during the encryption:

IMPORTANT NOTE! - Ransomware-type infections from Djvu malware family are designed to add a number of entries to the Windows hosts file. The entries contain URLs of various websites, most of which are related to malware removal. This is carried out with the intention of making users unable to access malware security websites and seek help. Our website (PCrisk.com) is also on the list. Removing these entries, however, is simple - you can find detailed instructions in this article (note that, although the steps are shown in the Windows 10 environment, the process is virtually identical on all versions of the Microsoft Windows operating system).

Video suggesting what steps should be taken in case of a ransomware infection:

Quick menu:

• STEP 1. Reporting ransomware to authorities.
• STEP 2. Isolating the infected device.
• STEP 3. Identifying the ransomware infection.
• STEP 4. Searching for ransomware decryption tools.
• STEP 5. Restoring files with data recovery tools.
• STEP 6. Creating data backups.

Reporting ransomware to authorities:

If you are a victim of a ransomware attack we recommend reporting this incident to authorities. By providing information to law enforcement agencies you will help track cybercrime and potentially assist in the prosecution of the attackers. Here's a list of authorities where you should report a ransomware attack. For the complete list of local cybersecurity centers and information on why you should report ransomware attacks, read this article.

List of local authorities where ransomware attacks should be reported (choose one depending on your residence address):

• USA - Internet Crime Complaint Centre IC3
• United Kingdom - Action Fraud
• Spain - Policía Nacional
• France - Ministère de l'Intérieur
• Germany - Polizei
• Italy - Polizia di Stato
• The Netherlands - Politie
• Poland - Policja
• Portugal - Polícia Judiciária

Isolating the infected device:

Some ransomware-type infections are designed to encrypt files within external storage devices, infect them, and even spread throughout the entire local network. For this reason, it is very important to isolate the infected device (computer) as soon as possible.

Step 1: Disconnect from the internet.

The easiest way to disconnect a computer from the internet is to unplug the Ethernet cable from the motherboard, however, some devices are connected via a wireless network and for some users (especially those who are not particularly tech-savvy), disconnecting cables may seem troublesome. Therefore, you can also disconnect the system manually via Control Panel:

Navigate to the 'Control Panel', click the search bar in the upper-right corner of the screen, enter 'Network and Sharing Center' and select search result:

Click the 'Change adapter settings' option in the upper-left corner of the window:

Right-click on each connection point and select 'Disable'. Once disabled, the system will no longer be connected to the internet. To re-enable the connection points, simply right-click again and select 'Enable'.

Step 2: Unplug all storage devices.

As mentioned above, ransomware might encrypt data and infiltrate all storage devices that are connected to the computer. For this reason, all external storage devices (flash drives, portable hard drives, etc.) should be disconnected immediately, however, we strongly advise you to eject each device before disconnecting to prevent data corruption:

Navigate to 'My Computer', right-click on each connected device, and select 'Eject':

Step 3: Log-out of cloud storage accounts.

Some ransomware-type might be able to hijack software that handles data stored within 'the Cloud'. Therefore, the data could be corrupted/encrypted. For this reason, you should log-out of all cloud storage accounts within browsers and other related software. You should also consider temporarily uninstalling the cloud-management software until the infection is completely removed.

Identify the ransomware infection:

To properly handle an infection, one must first identify it. Some ransomware infections use ransom-demand messages as an introduction (see the WALDO ransomware text file below).

This, however, is rare. In most cases, ransomware infections deliver more direct messages simply stating that data is encrypted and that victims must pay some sort of ransom. Note that ransomware-type infections typically generate messages with different file names (for example, '_readme.txt', 'READ-ME.txt', 'DECRYPTION_INSTRUCTIONS.txt', 'DECRYPT_FILES.html', etc.). Therefore, using the name of a ransom message may seem like a good way to identify the infection. The problem is that most of these names are generic and some infections use the same names, even though the delivered messages are different and the infections themselves are unrelated. Therefore, using the message filename alone can be ineffective and even lead to permanent data loss (for example, by attempting to decrypt data using tools designed for different ransomware infections, users are likely to end up permanently damaging files and decryption will no longer be possible even with the correct tool).

Another way to identify a ransomware infection is to check the file extension, which is appended to each encrypted file. Ransomware infections are often named by the extensions they append (see files encrypted by Qewe ransomware below).

This method is only effective, however, when the appended extension is unique - many ransomware infections append a generic extension (for example, '.encrypted', '.enc', '.crypted', '.locked', etc.). In these cases, identifying ransomware by its appended extension becomes impossible.

One of the easiest and quickest ways to identify a ransomware infection is to use the ID Ransomware website. This service supports most existing ransomware infections. Victims simply upload a ransom message and/or one encrypted file (we advise you to upload both if possible).

The ransomware will be identified within seconds and you will be provided with various details, such as the name of the malware family to which the infection belongs, whether it is decryptable, and so on.

Example 1 (Qewe [Stop/Djvu] ransomware):

Example 2 (.iso [Phobos] ransomware):

If your data happens to be encrypted by ransomware that is not supported by ID Ransomware, you can always try searching the internet by using certain keywords (for example, a ransom message title, file extension, provided contact emails, crypto wallet addresses, etc.).

Search for ransomware decryption tools:

Encryption algorithms used by most ransomware-type infections are extremely sophisticated and, if the encryption is performed properly, only the developer is capable of restoring data. This is because decryption requires a specific key, which is generated during the encryption. Restoring data without the key is impossible. In most cases, cybercriminals store keys on a remote server, rather than using the infected machine as a host. Dharma (CrySis), Phobos, and other families of high-end ransomware infections are virtually flawless, and thus restoring data encrypted without the developers' involvement is simply impossible. Despite this, there are dozens of ransomware-type infections that are poorly developed and contain a number of flaws (for example, the use of identical encryption/decryption keys for each victim, keys stored locally, etc.). Therefore, always check for available decryption tools for any ransomware that infiltrates your computer.

Finding the correct decryption tool on the internet can be very frustrating. For this reason, we recommend that you use the No More Ransom Project and this is where identifying the ransomware infection is useful. The No More Ransom Project website contains a 'Decryption Tools' section with a search bar. Enter the name of the identified ransomware, and all available decryptors (if there are any) will be listed.

Restore files with data recovery tools:

Depending on the situation (quality of ransomware infection, type of encryption algorithm used, etc.), restoring data with certain third-party tools might be possible. Therefore, we advise you to use the Recuva tool developed by CCleaner. This tool supports over a thousand data types (graphics, video, audio, documents, etc.) and it is very intuitive (little knowledge is necessary to recover data). In addition, the recovery feature is completely free.

Step 1: Perform a scan.

Run the Recuva application and follow the wizard. You will be prompted with several windows allowing you to choose what file types to look for, which locations should be scanned, etc. All you need to do is select the options you're looking for and start the scan. We advise you to enable the 'Deep Scan' before starting, otherwise, the application's scanning capabilities will be restricted.

Wait for Recuva to complete the scan. The scanning duration depends on the volume of files (both in quantity and size) that you are scanning (for example, several hundred gigabytes could take over an hour to scan). Therefore, be patient during the scanning process. We also advise against modifying or deleting existing files, since this might interfere with the scan. If you add additional data (for example, downloading files/content) while scanning, this will prolong the process:

Step 2: Recover data.

Once the process is complete, select the folders/files you wish to restore and simply click 'Recover'. Note that some free space on your storage drive is necessary to restore data:

Create data backups:

Proper file management and creating backups is essential for data security. Therefore, always be very careful and think ahead.

Partition management: We recommend that you store your data in multiple partitions and avoid storing important files within the partition that contains the entire operating system. If you fall into a situation whereby you cannot boot the system and are forced to format the disk on which the operating system is installed (in most cases, this is where malware infections hide), you will lose all data stored within that drive. This is the advantage of having multiple partitions: if you have the entire storage device assigned to a single partition, you will be forced to delete everything, however, creating multiple partitions and allocating the data properly allows you to prevent such problems. You can easily format a single partition without affecting the others - therefore, one will be cleaned and the others will remain untouched, and your data will be saved. Managing partitions is quite simple and you can find all the necessary information on Microsoft's documentation web page.

Data backups: One of the most reliable backup methods is to use an external storage device and keep it unplugged. Copy your data to an external hard drive, flash (thumb) drive, SSD, HDD, or any other storage device, unplug it and store it in a dry place away from the sun and extreme temperatures. This method is, however, quite inefficient, since data backups and updates need to be made regularly. You can also use a cloud service or remote server. Here, an internet connection is required and there is always the chance of a security breach, although it's a really rare occasion.

We recommend using Microsoft OneDrive for backing up your files. OneDrive lets you store your personal files and data in the cloud, sync files across computers and mobile devices, allowing you to access and edit your files from all of your Windows devices. OneDrive lets you save, share and preview files, access download history, move, delete, and rename files, as well as create new folders, and much more.

You can back up your most important folders and files on your PC (your Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders). Some of OneDrive’s more notable features include file versioning, which keeps older versions of files for up to 30 days. OneDrive features a recycling bin in which all of your deleted files are stored for a limited time. Deleted files are not counted as part of the user’s allocation. Volvo d13 vs cummins isx.

The service is built using HTML5 technologies and allows you to upload files up to 300 MB via drag and drop into the web browser or up to 10 GB via the OneDrive desktop application. With OneDrive, you can download entire folders as a single ZIP file with up to 10,000 files, although it can’t exceed 15 GB per single download.

OneDrive comes with 5 GB of free storage out of the box, with an additional 100 GB, 1 TB, and 6 TB storage options available for a subscription-based fee. You can get one of these storage plans by either purchasing additional storage separately or with Office 365 subscription.

Creating a data backup:

The backup process is the same for all file types and folders. Here’s how you can back up your files using Microsoft OneDrive

Step 1: Choose the files/folders you want to backup.

Click the OneDrive cloud icon to open the OneDrive menu. While in this menu, you can customize your file backup settings.

Click Help & Settings and then select Settings from the drop-down menu.

Go to the Backup tab and click Manage backup.

In this menu, you can choose to backup the Desktop and all of the files on it, and Documents and Pictures folders, again, with all of the files in them. Click Start backup.

Now, when you add a file or folder in the Desktop and Documents and Pictures folders, they will be automatically backed up on OneDrive.

To add folders and files, not in the locations shown above, you have to add them manually.

Open File Explorer and navigate to the location of the folder/file you want to backup. Select the item, right-click it, and click Copy.

Then, navigate to OneDrive, right-click anywhere in the window and click Paste. Alternatively, you can just drag and drop a file into OneDrive. OneDrive will automatically create a backup of the folder/file.

All of the files added to the OneDrive folder are backed up in the cloud automatically. The green circle with the checkmark in it indicates that the file is available both locally and on OneDrive and that the file version is the same on both. The blue cloud icon indicates that the file has not been synced and is available only on OneDrive. The sync icon indicates that the file is currently syncing.

To access files only located on OneDrive online, go to the Help & Settings drop-down menu and select View online.

Step 2: Adele hello soundcloud for mac. Restore corrupted files.

OneDrive makes sure that the files stay in sync, so the version of the file on the computer is the same version on the cloud. However, if ransomware has encrypted your files, you can take advantage of OneDrive’s Version history feature that will allow you to restore the file versions prior to encryption.

Microsoft 365 has a ransomware detection feature that notifies you when your OneDrive files have been attacked and guide you through the process of restoring your files. It must be noted, however, that if you don’t have a paid Microsoft 365 subscription, you only get one detection and file recovery for free.

If your OneDrive files get deleted, corrupted, or infected by malware, you can restore your entire OneDrive to a previous state. Here’s how you can restore your entire OneDrive:

1. If you're signed in with a personal account, click the Settings cog at the top of the page. Then, click Options and select Restore your OneDrive.

If you're signed in with a work or school account, click the Settings cog at the top of the page. Then, click Restore your OneDrive.

2. On the Restore your OneDrive page, select a date from the drop-down list. Note that if you're restoring your files after automatic ransomware detection, a restore date will be selected for you.

3. After configuring all of the file restoration options, click Restore to undo all the activities you selected.

The best way to avoid damage from ransomware infections is to maintain regular up-to-date backups.

The STOP ransomware has seen very heavy distribution over the last month using adware installers disguised as cracks. This campaign continues with a new variant released over the past few days that appends the .rumba extension to the names of encrypted files.

Using adware bundles and software cracks as a new distribution method, STOP has become one of the most prolific ransomware infections we have seen in quite a while. First starting with the .djvu extension, then switching to the .tro extension, this latest .rumba variant continue to be heavily distributed as can be seen by the chart from ID Ransomware below.

A common practice used by sites that distribute software cracks is to utilize adware bundles in order to generate revenue. These bundles will normally install unwanted extensions, adware, clickers, and miners, but one bundler appears to be turning a blind eye and has started distributing the STOP Ransomware as well.

Some of the reported cracks that are installing this ransomware include Windows activation cracks such as KMSPico, Cubase, Photoshop, antivirus software, and cracks for many other popular copyrighted software. From reports by infected users, it does not appear to be one particular crack site that is affected, but many different ones who are pushing similar adware bundles.

In this new variant, not much has changed and the developers continue to use the same approach as outlined in our DJVU article. The main difference is in this version the ransomware will append the .rumba extension to a file's name after it is encrypted as shown below.

In each folder that a file is encrypted, the ransomware will create a ransom note named _openme.txt that contains instructions on how to contact the attacker for payment instructions.
