To hack it with a brute force, you need to have a lot more time than our galaxy already exists, and possibly will exist. However, that malware does not do all these horrible things instantly – it may require up to a few hours to cipher all of your files.

Where did I get the Win32/Injector.Autoit.DUY?

Routine methods of Win32/Injector.Autoit.DUY injection are typical for all other ransomware variants. Those are one-day landing websites where users are offered to download and install the free app, so-called bait e-mails and hacktools. Bait emails are a pretty new method in malware distribution – you get the email that mimics some standard notifications about deliveries or bank service conditions shifts. Inside of the e-mail, there is a malicious MS Office file, or a link which opens the exploit landing page.

Malicious email spam

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

Preventing it looks pretty easy, but still requires tons of awareness. Malware can hide in different places, and it is better to stop it even before it goes into your PC than to rely upon an anti-malware program. Basic cybersecurity knowledge is just an essential item in the modern-day world, even if your interaction with a computer stays on YouTube videos. That can keep you a lot of time and money which you would spend while searching for a fix guide.
