    My customer in Russia uses SEP 12.1.2 with latest updates. He reported that one of his systems (accounting server) was infected and users' and database files was encrypted. The files are renamed, the template is %ID%help@antivirusebola.com

    One of our competitor's web site determines the threat as Cryptor.701. The encryption algorithm is AES with 128 bit key. Can we decrypt these files? Can we protect the systems from this threat? What can we do to help Symantec protect customers from this?

    Hi hdablin,

    This article may be of use:

    Recovering Ransomlocked Files Using Built-In Windows Tools
    https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/recovering-ransomlocked-files-using-built-windows-tools

    Restoring from a known good backup is the solution against these.  There's no way to undo the sabotage.

    If they have identified the file which caused the damage, please do ask them to submit it to Security Response.

    It will not help them to decrypt the files, but it will save other users from suffering the same fate.  Please feel free to PM me the Tracking number if there is a submission! &: )

    With thanks and best regsrds,

    Mick
