IIOF VIRUS REMOVAL GUIDE (+DECRYPT .IIOF FILES)

Daniel Zimmermann1 week ago

IIOF – GENERAL INFO

Iiof is a destructive software working as typical ransomware. Michael Gillespie,
the well-known malware researcher, first discovered this new name in the DJVU
ransomware family.

Iiof was created for the sole function to encrypt all popular file types.
Realistically, as soon as the file encryption is successfully achieved, the
users are unable to get access to them. Iiof virus adds its own “.iiof” to all
the encrypted data. For example, the file “price_list.xls”, as soon as crypted
by Iiof, will be entitled as “price_list.xls.iiof”. Once the encryption is
accomplished, Iiof puts its own unique text document (_readme.txt) into all the
folders that keep the encrypted files.

The message mentioned by document requesting for the random os really similar to
the alerts provided by other ransomware risks coming from the DJVU family. The
warning generally shows that the files have been encrypted and the only solution
to get access to it is to use a distinct standalone key. Regretfully, this
declaration is absolutely true.

The approach to encrypt the files utilized by Iiof is not totally researched.
However, there is no doubt that each computer system owner might be released a
special decryption key, which is definitely special. It is exceptionally hard to
recuperate the data without the appropriate type in location.

“DON’T WORRY, YOU CAN RETURN ALL YOUR FILES!”, FROM TEXT FILE MESSAGE:

One more peculiarity of the Iiof virus is that the users are not able to get
access to the key. The decrypting key is hosted on a special server under the
total control by the crooks who have introduced the Iiof virus into the
internet. In order to get the key and bring back the crucial data, the users are
informed to connect with the frauds through email or by telegram and to pay the
ransom in the amount of $980.

The message also says that the people ought to contact the Iiof authors within
72 hours upon the moment of the data file encryption. The alert indicates that
by doing so individuals will acquire a 50% discount rate, for that reason, the
ransom quantity drops down to $490.

Iiof modified your information, however, it might not be the only threat on your
PC. Plus, the ransomware might be hidden deep in the system. To spot and erase
the danger completely, we advise you to refer to the aid of GridinSoft
Anti-Malware tool.

GridinSoft Anti-Malware Review, How to get free trial?, EULA, and Privacy
Policy.

No matter what the quantity of the ransom is, we highly encourage that you do
not pay the ransom. There is no warranty that these online scoundrels will keep
their pledges, so they might not care at all what the victims feel about the
encryption, even when the amount of the ransom is received into their accounts.
For this reason, paying ransom often does not result in an effective recovery.
So, the users might simply lose their money for nothing.

Similarly, we urge you not to get in touch with the frauds as they instruct. Do
not move cash into their wallets. There are no applications that could break the
Iiof virus or restore the data at no cost. For that reason, the only appropriate
decision is to bring back the information from possible backups (if offered).

VIRUS SUMMARY

NameIiof RansomwareFile ExtensioniiofTypeRansomwareFamilyDJVUShort
DescriptionThe ransomware encrypts all the data stored on your system and
requires a ransom to be paid on your part supposedly to recover your important
files.SymptomsFile encryption by the ransomware is performed by means of the
AES-256 algorithm (CFB mode) encryption algorithm. Once the encryption is
completed, the ransomware adds its special .iiof extension to all the files
modified by it.Distribution MethodAdware bundles and software cracksSimilar

Decryption Tool Emsisoft Djvu Decryptor

Do not forget that the Web is now loaded with infections comparable to the Iiof
virus. For example, this specific threat is generally identical to Brusaf and
other ransomware-type infections. These harmful utilities have been developed in
order to encrypt the crucial data and reveal the demand for the users to pay the
ransom. All these infections use the identical algorithm to create the
particular key for effective data decryption.

Unless the Iiof ransomware is still under the development process or has
actually got some concealed bugs, it is not possible to bring back the
information manually. Therefore, the only working service to prevent the loss of
your crucial data is to regularly maintain up-to-date backups of all your vital
documents.

Another essential piece of recommendations is to keep the backups on unique
storage not connected to your main PC. For example, you might keep it on the USB
Flash Drive, or some external hard disk, or by using the cloud data storage
services. Keeping the backups on your regular drive is very risky, considering
that the backup may likewise be encrypted by the Iiof .

LEAKS FOR THE IIOF RANSOMWARE ATTACK.

Iiof uses many paths to infiltrate the vulnerable computer systems. It is not
specific what particular method was utilized in your case, however, the invasion
may occur via the following channels:

* bundling with third-party programs, generally free software;
* spam emails from the unidentified senders;
* websites supplying complimentary hosting;
* P2P (peer-to-peer) torrent downloads.

There are times when the Iiof ransomware might disguise itself as some genuine
application, for instance, through the misleading alerts requiring setup of some
software application upgrade. This is the most typical technique utilized by the
scams to inject the Iiof virus files into the system. By doing this users
partially participate in its installation, without clearly understanding the
risk.

In addition, the scams might send out unsolicited spam e-mail with challenging
notifies encouraging the people to open dubious accessories or click on some
download links, for example, those encouraging individuals to open specific
images, text files, tax documents and other info.

No doubt, opening these files or clicking the destructive links might basically
harm the system. Fake Adobe Flash Player upgrade alerts may cause the Iiof
ransomware seepage. Likewise, downloading the cracked software application might
in addition consist of the ransomware installer. The last but not the least,
installation of Iiof might occur through some Trojan horses that might be set up
stealthily into the system and without the user’s direct permission and even
consent.

PREVENTING THE IIOF RANSOMWARE ATTACK.

Of course, there is no absolute guarantee that your computer will be always
without any malware attacks, nevertheless, we would like to share some useful
pointers with you to make it much safer. Make certain to pay very close
attention while searching the web and specifically while downloading cost-free
programs. Do not open any suspicious email accessories, particularly if the
sender is not understood to you.

Do not forget that particular freeware installer may likewise consist of some
other additional apps in the package. These additional applications might be
very damaging. It is of utmost value to keep your anti-virus software and your
operating system in basic to be constantly appropriately updated.

It is quite logical that downloading pirated software is prohibited,
nevertheless, additionally, such unapproved software application use might also
bring severe damage to your PC. Thus, do not download any broken programs. Plus,

Iiof ransomware is a great reason for you to reassess your options and switch to
another program that can render the securing functions on a far better level.
