Uninstall Kaspersky AntiVirus Software From Your Systems.

MSNBC reports tonight (7-28-2017) that it has exposed ties between Kaspersky labs and cyber forces within the Russian Government . Specifically the Russian Spy agency FSB.

U.S. government officials, including the Senate Intelligence Committee and members of the intelligence community are allegedly concerned that the Russian-headquartered security software manufacturer Kaspersky Lab might be colluding with the Russian government, claims the company denies and the cybersecurity community has never put much stock into.

Homeland Security, reports ABC News, issued a secret warning to avoid use of the company's products in February.

This isn't the first time someone has accused Kaspersky Lab of potentially using its software to undermine America. Similar allegations came out in 2015, when Bloomberg published a piece describing Eugene Kaspersky's friendship with government officials including those from the FSB - the Russian intelligence agency.

"I know Eugene and many of his GReAT team. All excellent and reputable," tweeted the cybersecurity consultant Jeffrey Carr who runs the Suits and Spooks intelligence conference.

We don't know what Homeland Security or the intelligence community knows, but we do know what allegations have been made in the past.

Consumer Reports Original Ransomware Interview With Short Circuited Consumer Services Owner Raul Glasgow Circa 2016

Ransomware is a form of malware, or malicious software that is a lot more complicated that typical malware. Ransomware can present itself in a few ways, two forms described below:

Locker ransomware encrypts the whole hard drive of the computer, essentially locking the user out of the entire system.
Crypto ransomware will only encrypt specific, seemingly important files on the computer, such as word documents, PDFs and image files.

Ransomware does exactly what it sounds like – it presents users with an ultimatum: pay a fee to unlock and reclaim personal data, or don’t pay the fee and lose the data indefinitely.

Happened to me ransom

Consumer Reports Article Raul Glasgow and Short Circuited Computer Services Referenced

By Raul Glasgow, Owner, Shortcircuited Computer Repair Services, Brooklyn, New York

I do info-tech consulting and computer repair. I’m basically the computer guy for a number of dental and medical offices. One day last summer I got up and checked on the server where I keep my website—and the site was just gone. The files were encrypted, and I saw a message appearing in a pop-up window.

This wasn’t the first time I’d encountered ransomware, so I knew what the message was going to say: To get the files back I’d have to pay the hackers in bitcoin, a digital currency.

I started seeing ransomware attacks targeting some of my clients two or three years ago, and since then it’s become more common.

The first time it was a dental office, and they were being told to pay about $2,000 in bitcoin to get their files back. But we were worried they could lose the money if the hackers didn’t actually restore the files—after all, we didn’t know who these guys were. We ended up wiping everything and starting fresh with a new computer. We could do that because everything was backed up.

Specializing in Helping Businesses Remove Ransomware & Restore Encrypted Files.

We at Shortcircuited Computer Services saw our first ransomware attack 6.5 years ago.

In 2013 ransomware attacks were new and not prevalent and most companies had no clue on how to deal with infections.

Once attacked there are basically two options. Restore from a backup or pay the ransom.

That's it. Sometimes you may get lucky and find decryptors online

Because of these limited options we at Shortcircuited are more focused on hack prevention as opposed to the data recovery aspect. Protect your valuable data against the recent worms.

Call us at 347-791-3311 if your office machines are infected with ransomware.

A technician will respond to your inquiries as soon as possible.

Ransomware mediation services in events that there is no decryptor.
