Qnty Ransomware

What is Qnty ransomware?

Qnty is a piece of malicious software classified as ransomware; it is designed to encrypt data and demand payment for the decryption. After obtaining a sample from VirusTotal, our researchers determined that Qnty belongs to the Djvu ransomware family.

On our test machine, this malicious program encrypted files and appended their filenames with a ".qnty" extension. For example, a file initially titled "1.jpg" appeared as "1.jpg.qnty", "2.jpg" as "2.jpg.qnty", and so on. Once the encryption process was completed, a ransom-demanding message - "_readme.txt" - was created.

For example, Kl renames "1.jpg" to "1.jpg.id-9ECFA84E.[filekiller@onionmail.org].kl", "document.txt" to "document.txt.id-9ECFA84E.[filekiller@onionmail.org].kl". Also, it displays a pop-up window and creates a text file named "info.txt". Both of them contain a ransom note.
