And now, if you've managed to contract one of these four ransomware strains, you can retrieve your files for free with No More Ransom's latest decryption tools:
- FortuneCrypt ransomware
- Yatron ransomware
- WannaCryFake ransomware
- Avest ransomware
ZDNet covered more on the contributors of these free decryption keys:
"Now more free decryption tools have been added to the No More Ransom arsenal, as Kaspersky Lab has provided tools for decrypting Yatron and FortuneCrypt, while Emsisoft has released a free decryptor for WannaCryFake.
The authors of Yatron based it on Hidden Tear, a well-known form of open-source ransomware, and it encrypts victims' files with the extension .Yatron. However, researchers at Kaspersky identified mistakes in the crytopgtaphy of Yatron, allowing them to create the decryptor."
