What is RYKCRYPT ransomware?
RYKCRYPT is a recently discovered ransomware virus. It belongs to a group of ransomware known as the VoidCrypt family. Zendaya is another recent example of a VoidCrypt virus.
Like every other ransomware program, RYKCRYPT encrypts the victims’ files so that it can ask money for decrypting them. The affected files are also renamed; each of them now includes a unqiue victim ID, the hacker’s e-mail, and .RYKCRYPT file extension in their name. That is done to ensure that the attack will not be written off as a simple computer malfunction.
The virus communicates its demands through a text file named “unlock-info.txt”. You can read its full text on the image above, although it doesn’t mean that you should; the hackers don’t mention much in terms of valuable information. They want to be paid in BitCoin, but don’t specify how much money they want.
Trying to cooperate with these hackers is not a very good idea. For one, they might not decrypt your files even after receiving payment. Alternatively, they might decrypt your files but then attack you again a few days later.
Thankfully, there are several ways to remove RYKCRYPT ransomware and decrypt .RYKCRYPT files without involving the criminals. Read about them in the guide below.
