Devious new malware poses as ransomware to wipe Russian court data



Public organizations in Russia, including mayoral offices and courts, are being targeted by a brand new and quite devious malware variant.

CryWiper poses as ransomware, trying to extort a little money out of the victims (0.5 bitcoin, or roughly $9,000 at press time), but its goal is not to get paid – it’s to destroy all the files found on the infected endpoint.
