Recovery after encryption
Restoring data after an encryption attack can be difficult and requires certain skills. Here are some recommendations that can help you get your data back:
1. Isolation of the infected computer: The first thing to do is to disconnect the infected computer from the Internet or any other network connection to prevent the further spread of the malicious program.
2. Cleaning the system: Run the antivirus software on a clean operating system (do not forget to update it to the latest versions) and scan all files for possible threats.
3. Restoration from a backup copy: If you made regular backup copies of your data before the attack of the encryptor, then the best way to restore the state of your information is to use these saved files for full or partial recovery of lost files.
4. Contact with security specialists: Contact IT industry professionals or hacker/encryption removal firms for additional help and advice.
5. Using data recovery tools: In some cases, you can use specialized programs or services that can allow you to return encrypted files without paying a ransom (but this is not always guaranteed).
It is important to note that each case of an encryption attack may be different, so these recommendations are general guidelines. It is best to consult with specialists in the IT industry for the best approach to your specific situation.
