What is 1k3pl ransomware?

Discovered by our research team while inspecting new malware submissions on VirusTotal, 1k3pl is a piece of malicious software categorized as ransomware.

After being executed on our test system, 1k3pl began encrypting files and renaming them by appending the filenames with a random character string and the ".1k3pl" extension. For example, a file originally named "1.jpg" appeared as "1.jpg.EurKwTJRH6qkQ16EevMwYO4Yny-zeqG_06JmClxjZQ3_KgAAACoAAAA0.1k3pl".

Once this process was completed, a ransom note "HXUo_HOW_TO_DECRYPT.txt" was created. We can surmise that 1k3pl targets companies rather than home users - since the information provided by its text file and website implies this. It is noteworthy that enterprise-targeting ransomware infections can be highly customized and vary from victim to victim.
