What is INT ransomware?

INT ransomware is a new strain of the Makop virus. As a ransomware program, it encrypts the files of its victims’ computers in order to demand payment for their decryption. However, these programs tend to do more than that; for example leaving a ransom note is pretty essential to this criminal operation.
INT is not an exception to this rule; it leaves a simple, if somewhat lengthy, note called “+README-WARNING+.txt”. You may read the full text of the note on the image above, if you wish. To recap, the hackers simply tell the victim to contact them, and do not mention any specific sum of money.
Files encrypted by INT have their name changed. The virus adds an ID, one of the hackers’ e-mails, and finally the .INT file extension to the names. This is how the virus got its name.
Paying these hackers is generally a bad idea. You will, obviously, lose money, but also open yourself to more attacks in the future, and might not even get your files back at all. So we’ve prepared a guide explaining other ways to remove INT ransomware and decrypt .INT files.

What is Rar ransomware?

Rar is a ransomware program, which means it is a virus that makes money to the hacker by holding the victims’ files for ransom. Once on the victim’s computer, it encrypts all the files it can find. These files cannot be opened, edited, or viewed, so they’re virtually useless. However, encryption is a reversible process. Decrypting the files will restore them to their original state; this is exactly what the hacker charges money for.
Rar belongs to the VoidCrypt ransomware family; Eking is an example of another virus in it.
Rar changes the names of the files when it encrypts them; specifically, it adds victim’s unique ID, the hacker’s contact information (an e-mail address), and, finally .rar file extension. This might cause encrypted files to look like archive files, but they’re not. You will not be able to open them with WinRAR or a similar program.
Rar also leaves a ransom note, named simply “Read.txt”. The note itself is rather short and doesn’t contain much information, but you can read it on the image above.
Paying the cybercriminals is not recommended; often, they just disappear after receiving the money. The guide below will explain how to remove Rar ransomware and decrypt .rar files for free, without contacting the hackers.

The focus of this article is specifically Zatp ransomware, however. If you want to know more about ransomware in general, you’re welcome to use other resources on the internet, such as this Wikipedia article.

You can read its text on the image above, but basically, the hackers want $980 for decryption. To psychologically trick the victim, a discount is also offered.
