  • Blocking the launching of .exe files of anti-malware programs

Ransomware has actually been a major problem for the last 4 years. It is difficult to picture a more damaging malware for both individual users and companies. The algorithms used in MSIL/TrojanDownloader.Agent.QGT (usually, RHA-1028 or AES-256) are not hackable – with minor exclusions. To hack it with a brute force, you need to have more time than our galaxy currently exists, and possibly will exist. However, that virus does not do all these horrible things immediately – it may take up to a few hours to cipher all of your files.

Where did I get the MSIL/TrojanDownloader.Agent.QGT?

Common tactics of MSIL/TrojanDownloader.Agent.QGT distribution are common for all other ransomware variants. Those are one-day landing websites where victims are offered to download the free app, so-called bait emails and hacktools. Bait e-mails are a pretty modern method in malware distribution – you receive the e-mail that mimics some regular notifications about deliveries or bank service conditions shifts. Within the e-mail, there is a malicious MS Office file, or a web link which leads to the exploit landing site.

Malicious email spam

Malicious email message. This one tricks you to open the phishing website.

Preventing it looks quite uncomplicated, however, still demands tons of recognition. Malware can hide in various spots, and it is better to stop it even before it gets into your PC than to rely on an anti-malware program. Basic cybersecurity awareness is just an important item in the modern-day world, even if your interaction with a computer remains on YouTube videos. That may save you a great deal of time and money which you would spend while looking for a solution.
