Sdkkxbh Ransomware

Posted: June 5, 2020

The Sdkkxbh Ransomware is a computer threat that has the ability to encrypt your files, therefore making it impossible to view or use their contents. The encrypted files may only be restored by running a specialized decryption tool paired with a unique decryption key that the Sdkkxbh Ransomware generates when it infects your computer. Unfortunately, the key is stored on servers controlled by the Sdkkxbh Ransomware's authors, and they are not giving it away for free – instead, they ask to be paid a hefty sum in exchange for this key piece of information.

The Sdkkxbh Ransomware is programmed to mark the names of the files it encrypts by adding a new extension – '.sdkkxbh.' So, for example, if you named a file 'cat.png,' it would be named 'cat.png.sdkkxbh' after the attack is completed. Unfortunately, removing the extension and trying to open the file will result in nothing, because its contents have been encrypted.

The Key to Unlock Your Files may Have an Impressive Price Tag

The Sdkkxbh Ransomware also drops a ransom message called 'HOW TO RESTORE YOUR FILES.txt' – it should be found on the desktop, and in directories that contain encrypted files. According to the ransom message, the perpetrators offer a decryption service that will cost the victim some money. They tell their victims to message 1rest0re@protonmail.com for more information.

It is recommended to avoid contacting the Sdkkxbh Ransomware's authors, as well as not consider their offer – they offer no proof that the decryptor works, and there is no way for you to be sure that they will end up tricking you out of your money. It is advisable to remove the Sdkkxbh Ransomware with the help of an anti-virus scanner, and then experiment with popular data recovery tools and techniques.
