How we Recover and Restore Ransomware-encrypted Data
Ransomware attacks are common and sophisticated. Hackers target companies of all sizes and they deliver their promise of leaking the stolen data. Proven Data’s has successfully provided ransomware recovery with four main services:
Data Carving
Our experts use advanced techniques to recover encrypted or damaged files from infected systems. By analyzing file structures and reconstructing them without relying on ransomware encryption, we can restore individual files or entire directories.
Exploit Encryption Weakness
Our certified professionals excel in identifying flaws or vulnerabilities within ransomware encryption algorithms. With our expertise, we develop effective tools and techniques to decrypt files, eliminating the need for decryption keys and allowing seamless data recovery.
Proprietary or Public Decryptors
Our team utilizes specialized tools developed by security researchers and antivirus companies to unlock specific types of ransomware. Through exploiting vulnerabilities in encryption algorithms and key storage systems, we help victims regain access to encrypted files without paying the ransom.
Ransom Mediation Efforts
Count on us to engage with ransomware operators on your behalf. Our skilled negotiators employ strategic tactics to seek resolutions, whether it's obtaining decryption keys or negotiating lower ransom amounts. This alternative avenue for recovery is pursued when other methods are not feasible, ensuring your best interests are represented.
How to Handle a Ransomware Attack
Once you realize you’re a ransomware victim you must:
- Leave the infected machine the way it is – Don’t turn off the computer nor delete the encrypted files.
- Call Proven Data’s 24/7/365 ransomware removal service for immediate assistance and response.
- Contacting authorities is important and Proven Data’s experts can help navigate this step.
- Preserve any evidence of the attack – don’t delete any files and document the first indicators of compromise (IOC).
