RansomFree is a new tool designed to counter ransomware’s attacks. Ransomware is a kind of virus able to encrypt your data and ask you money to free your computer and recover your files. This maddening malware stays most of the time invisible to traditional antiviruses.
RansomFree developers analyzed tens of this kind of malware to detect a pattern in the behavior. RansomFree doesn’t search for a ransomware presence, but rather the beginning of the hard disk encryption operations. If suspicious activity is identified, RansomFree notifies it. You can choose to block it and save your data.
According to the developers, using this method, RansomFree should protect users from 99% of ransomware attacks.
In more detail, RansomFree can analyze all network activities, thereby protecting even the computers of your colleagues or network drives. RansomFree is a lightweight software, and it has no impact on system performance.
Conclusion
RansomFree is a brand new anti-ransomware you can’t entirely rely on: it’s better to use it together with a popular antivirus. Don’t forget to battle ransomware with regular backups – either cloud or desktop.
