RobbinHood Ransomware Claims It’s Protecting Your Privacy

Ransomware called RobbinHood is targeting entire networks and encrypting all computers that they can gain access to. They then request a certain amount of bitcoins to decrypt a single computer or a larger amount to decrypt the entire network. Ransom notes offer different payment amounts depending on whether you want to pay for the payment amount. The developers of the ransomware state that they care about their victim’s privacy and that the encryption keys and IP addresses will be deleted after payment. The ransom notes will include information regarding what happened to the victim’s files, ransom amounts, and links to the TOR sites where users can leave a message for the attackers.
