Planetary Ransomware Decryptor Gets Your Files Back For Free

A decryptor for the Planetary Ransomware family was released by Emsisoft this week that allows victims to decrypt their files for free. This ransomware family is named Planetary because it commonly uses the names of planets for the encrypted file’s names. The latest variant appends the latest variant of the.mira extension, which is named after the fictitious planet from the Xenoblade video game. The decryptor will now search the computer for encrypted files that end with the.mira,.yum,.Pluto,. or.Neptune extension and automatically decrypt them.
