SuperCrypt

Posted: November 3, 2014

SuperCrypt is ransomware used by hackers to attack the targeted PC via Remote desktop or Terminal services. Successful attack is the installation of password protected program that encrypts your files and places a text file on your desktop named: HOW-TO-DECRYPT-FILES. The text says your files are encrypted using military cipher. The text file instructs the user to send a file smaller that 1MB along with user's unique code via email to the assailants. SuperCrypt's handler returns an email containing the decrypted file and a ransom demand for decryption. The payment is usually 300 euro in the form of Bitcoins. If the attacker receives payment, SuperCrypt is removed from the victim's computer.
