The Week in Ransomware – July 22 2016 – Stampado, Bart, HolyCrypt, and More

This week we have 3 new ransomware variants, 2 new ransomware infections, and 4 new ransomware decryptors. Stampado finally popped its head out of its hole, but was quickly squashed and a slew of new decryptors were released. A new variant of the CryptXXX ransomware is not only modifying the extension of encrypted files, but is now renaming the entire file. A decryptor has been released by ransomware expert BloodDolly that will allow victim’s encrypted by the ODCODC Ransomware to recover their files for free.
