When many users find that their financial software has been infected by the devos ransomware virus, they often don’t know what to do. After all, financial personnel do not know much about computer technology, and financial data is very important to a company. Any improper operation may destroy these financial data. Recently, Yuntian Data Recovery Center received a customer. After this customer was infected by the devos ransomware virus, his operation can be said to be a template, which is worthy of reference by business owners and financial personnel. Let’s call this user Xiao Zhang.
The first step is to disconnect from the network and turn off file sharing.
When Xiao Zhang discovered that the company's server was infected with the devos ransomware virus, she immediately unplugged the network cable connected to the router and closed all sharing on the server. In this way, the poisoned server is isolated. Although isolation cannot solve the problem, it can prevent the horizontal spread of the virus.
The second step is to check if there are any other computer viruses.
For the convenience of work, the server operated by Xiao Zhang turned on sharing, which is very likely to cause other computers or servers to be infected with the devos ransomware virus. Fortunately, after checking one by one, Xiao Zhang found that other servers and computers in the company were not infected.
Step 3: Change all passwords
The server was infected with the devos ransomware virus, which shows that both the login password and the database connection password may be known to the other party. So Xiao Zhang immediately changed all the passwords used by the server. He also urged his colleagues to change the passwords used on their computers.
Step 4: Seek help from professionals
After being infected by the devos ransomware virus, Xiao Zhang did not blindly perform other operations on his own. Instead, I found Yuntian Data Recovery Center for help. After testing, it was confirmed that the data could be recovered, and after a solution was agreed upon, the data recovery process began. It only took 1 day to recover the data with 5G capacity.
The fifth step is to reinstall the system and back up the recovered data.
After being attacked, the computer, whether it is the operating system or the software, will definitely have loopholes, and some functions will not work properly. For security reasons, Xiao Zhang formatted the poisoned server and reinstalled the system. Not only that, Xiao Zhang also copied the recovered data to a mobile hard drive in case of emergency.
Every step of Xiao Zhang's operation seems simple, but it is extremely correct. If your server or computer is infected with the devos ransomware virus, this operation is very correct.
