Anti-virus firm Emsisoft has developed a free decryptor for PwndLocker ransomware. Ransomware has been targeting businesses and governments, with attackers demanding $500,000 or more in exchange for the promise of a decryption tool. Gang’s ransom demands have ranged from $175,000 to more than $660,000, Bleeping Computer reported last week. The ransomware appears to have surfaced in late 2019, and claimed credit for recently hitting Lasalle County in Illinois, demanding a ransom of 50 bitcoins ($425,000)”]
