No More Ransom — 15 New Ransomware Decryption Tools Available for Free


No More Ransom, so is the Ransomware Threat.

Launched less than a year ago, the No More Ransom (NMR) project has increased its capacity with new partners and new decryption tools added to its now global campaign to combat Ransomware.

Started as a joint initiative by Europol, the Dutch National Police, Intel Security and Kaspersky Lab, No More Ransom is an anti-ransomware cross-industry initiative to help ransomware victims recover their data without having to pay ransom to cyber criminals.

The online website not just educates computer users to protect themselves from ransomware, but also provides a collection of free decryption tools.

Since December, more than 10,000 victims from all over the world have been able to decrypt their locked up devices without spending a penny, using ransomware decryption tools available free of charge on this platform.

Statistics show that most of the website visitors were from Russia, the Netherlands, the U.S., Italy, and Germany.

The platform is now available in 14 languages and hosts 40 free decryption tools, supplied by a range of member organizations, which can be used by users to decrypt their files which have been locked up by given strains of ransomware.

No More Ransom initiative has been joined by thirty new organizations, including Avast, CERT Polska and Eleven Paths (the Telefonica Cyber Security Unit), which shows that the threat is a worldwide issue that needs to be fought together.

The initiative has also welcomed new law enforcement organizations from Interpol, Australia, Belgium, Israel, South Korea, Russia, and Ukraine.


Since December 2016, 15 new ransomware decryption tools have been added to the online portal by partner organizations, offering more decryption possibilities to the victims:



  • AVAST: Alcatraz Decryptor, Bart Decryptor, Crypt888 Decryptor, HiddenTear Decryptor, Noobcrypt Decryptor and Cryptomix Decryptor

  • Bitdefender: Bart Decryptor CERT Polska: Cryptomix/Cryptoshield decryptor

  • CheckPoint: Merry X-Mas Decryptor and BarRax Decryptor

  • Eleven Paths: Telefonica Cyber Security Unit: Popcorn Decryptor.

  • Emsisoft: Crypton Decryptor and Damage Decryptor.

  • Kaspersky Lab: Updates on Rakhni and Rannoh Decryptors.



Previously available in English, Dutch, French, Italian, Portuguese and Russian, the No More Ransom site has now added new languages including Finnish, German, Hebrew, Japanese, Korean, Slovenian, Spanish and Ukrainian.

More languages are also expected to be made available soon to assist victims across the world better.

World’s Fastest Camera Takes 5 Trillion Photos Per Second, Can Pause Moving Light

Image
High-speed cameras taking 100,000 pictures in one second are enough to fascinate us. But what about a camera that can film at a rate of 5 trillion images per second. It’s created by the researchers Elias Kristensson and Andreas Ehn at the Lund University in Sweden. The camera can make light slow enough that it could be analyzed by humans. In other words, it can be used to record events happening in the 0.2 trillionths of a second. In 2011, a similar camera device was created by the MIT Media Lab. But it was slower and capable of capturing 1 trillion images per second. The researchers demonstrated the camera by filming photons of light traveling a distance equivalent to the thickness of a paper. The trillion camera works in a different way in comparison to the normal high-speed cameras.

I'm Loyal to Nothing Except the Dream

There is much I take for granted in my life, and the normal functioning of American government is one of those things. In my 46 years, I've lived under nine different presidents. The first I remember is Carter. I've voted in every presidential election since 1992, but I do not consider myself a Democrat, or a Republican. I vote based on leadership – above all, leadership – and issues. In my 14 years of blogging, I've never written a political blog post. I haven't needed to. Until now. It is quite clear something has become deeply unglued in the state of American politics. The nuclear doomsday clock was just moved as close to midnight as it has been in 64 years. America was downgraded from a Democracy to a Flawed Democracy . As of 2017, the United States, through a sequence of highly improbable events, managed to elect an extremely controversial president. A president with historically low approval ratings , elected on a platform many considered too extreme to even be t
