24H Ransomware

What is 24H?

Discovered by Michael Gillespie, 24H is a ransomware-type virus designed to stealthily infiltrate the system and encrypt most stored files.

During encryption, 24H appends filenames with the ".24H" extension (e.g., "sample.jpg" is renamed to "sample.jpg.24H"). Encrypted data immediately becomes unusable. 24H then generates a text file ("ReadME-24H.txt"), placing a copy in every existing folder.

   
Ummi Video Downloader Adware

What is Ummy Video Downloader?

Developers present Ummy Video Downloader as a great tool that allows users to download videos from the YouTube, RuTube, and Dailymotion websites.

This application may seem legitimate and useful, however, Ummy Video Downloader is categorized as a potentially unwanted program (PUP) and adware. There are three main reasons for these negative associations: 1) stealth installation without users' consent; 2) tracking of web browsing activity, and; 3) display of intrusive advertisements.

After successfully encrypting data, HYENA LOCKER generates a text file named "!_HOW_RECOVERY_FILES_!.txt" and places a copy in every existing folder.
