A new ransomware called Vovalex is being distributed through fake pirated software that impersonates popular Windows utilities, such as CCleaner.
When it comes down to it, all ransomware infections boil down to the same function – encrypt a device’s files and then drop a ransom note demanding payment in some form.
While Vovalex is no different, what stands out to Advanced Intel’s Vitali Kremez and MalwareHunterTeam, who found the ransomware, is that it may be the first ransomware written in D.
