Langolier Ransomware

The Langolier Ransomware is a file encryption tool that hackers may use to ultimately extort money from victimized computer users. The actions of Langolier Ransomware start with its infiltration that may take place due to a user opening a malicious spam email attachment.

When loaded, Langolier Ransomware may display a text file that has instructions on how to recover encrypted files. The text will give contact email addresses for the user to supposedly send a message through Protonmail.com, which is a method for hackers to secretly communicate with victims. The threat then may not release a decryption process but demand a payment from the victim all leading to a scam that cannot be resolved.

The best approach to resolve the issues of Langolier Ransomware is to first eliminate the threat using an updated antimalware resource. When Langolier Ransomware is removed, the user may use a system backup to restore files that Langolier Ransomware initially encrypted.
