With the rapid development of information technology, servers have become indispensable and important equipment in modern enterprises. However, due to the existence of network security risks, servers may be exposed to various threats in daily operation, including malware and ransomware attacks. Recently, we have received requests from many companies for help. The UFIDA database of the company was attacked by the locked ransomware virus, which caused many important data of the company to be encrypted, and the account sets of the financial system could not be checked, which seriously affected the normal operation of the company. In order to allow many enterprises to quickly resume normal operation and effectively deal with such ransomware attacks, the following will introduce how the enterprise server UFIDA database is decrypted after being attacked by the locked ransomware virus, and provide effective methods for unlocking and data recovery.
1. Understand the Locked ransomware attack
Locked ransomware is a dangerous malware that encrypts files on the server and asks users to pay a ransom to unlock them. The virus usually spreads through attacks such as malicious emails, exploits, or port mapping. Once the files on the server are encrypted, users cannot normally access and use these files, seriously affecting the business and data security.
2. Countermeasures
1. Close cooperation with network security vendors: After the server is attacked by the Locked ransomware virus, the first step is to contact the network security data recovery vendor in time to report the incident and start the emergency response plan as soon as possible to restore data in time to reduce enterprise losses.
2. Quarantine the infected server: Quarantine the infected server from the network to prevent further spread of the virus. Disconnect servers from other systems and devices, and block unnecessary external access.
3. Never pay the ransom: Do not pay the ransom demanded by the extortionist lightly. This will only encourage criminal behavior and does not guarantee the security of unlocked files or data, and it is likely to cause secondary extortion incidents. Instead, backing up data and taking proper recovery measures is a more reliable solution.
4. Data recovery: Data recovery is the key to restoring server functions and normal business operations. Here are a few possible approaches:
a) Restoration of data backups: If we have regularly backed up the data on the server, then we can restore encrypted files from the backups. But ensure the integrity and availability of your backups to ensure a successful recovery.
b) Seek professional help: In some cases, it may be necessary to contact a professional data recovery service provider. They have highly specialized techniques that try to decrypt data and help us recover encrypted files. Yuntian Data Recovery Center has many years of professional experience in data recovery research and development, high data recovery integrity, safe and efficient data recovery, rich experience in decryption and recovery for various suffix ransomware viruses on the market, no charge for unsuccessful.
c) File recovery tools: There are some specially designed file recovery tools that can help me recover encrypted files. These tools can decrypt the affected files to a certain extent, but the success rate may vary, the data integrity is not high, and it will also cause damage to the source files, which will bring great difficulties to the secondary recovery.
5. Network security hardening: After the data is successfully restored, the security of the server is strengthened in time, and necessary measures are taken to improve the security of the server. Updating patches, using strong passwords, strengthening network security protection and other measures are the basic methods to ensure server security.
The server UFIDA database was attacked by the locked ransomware virus, which may have a serious impact on business operations, but reasonable countermeasures can help us unlock and restore the infected data. The most important thing in such situations is to act promptly, cooperate with the network security team, and follow the best practice way of backing up data and taking recovery measures. In addition, by strengthening the security of the server, similar attacks can be prevented in the future, ensuring the data security of the enterprise and the normal operation of the business.
