Welcome to the "Decrypt Service"

Doesn't that sound way too brandy? Like those smiling guys from -let's suppose- Big Bob's Repair Service 24 Hours you see when you crash your car in the middle of the road? They sure become handy in situations like this, but Damn! Big Bob's guys did not destroy your car in the first place! That's like stabbing you in the neck and later offer you a medical service. WHAT?!

Anyway... The Decrypt Service is the server, the webpage that will provide you with the program you need to decrypt your files back to their original form (after payment). This server is hidden behind Onion.to, which means it's horrendously difficult to trace. Maybe their server is in Russia, China or even your at your neighbor's. One can't really tell because Onion.to creates a chain of randomly chosen computers as a path to the final server. This chain-route can go from Miami to Russia, then to Australia, then back to Miami and then finally to the crook's server.

The Onion.to address they use (at least one of them) is: https://rj2bocejarqnpuhm.onion.to/*** where three dumb alphanumeric characters are used to identify the victims.  When you visit that link, this is what you see:



So, you fill the blanks with the code in the image (CAPTCHA) and proceed to the REPAIR.. oh, sorry DECRYPT SERVICE... Thanks God!




So, what if you don't really believe in this site? What if that page content is FAKE and not about your computer? Oh, well there you have "My Screen" section, in which you can see YOUR ACTUAL COMPUTER SCREEN!




Isn't that enough? Well, then there you have the Test Decrypt section where you can upload just one small file (only once) and get it decrypted in order to check the "service" works.


The crooks...under the name of Victor Yanukovich also uploaded a video to YouTube that clearly shows you this shit is 100% REAL. 



He is also gentle enough to show you step by step how to pay for his "SERVICE".

Alright, guys. This is a tough one: However, there's no reason to claim it's impossible to decrypt victims data. These idiots always let something slip through their fingers. Their servers might be found and keys restored to their respective victims. Errors might be found in their code, their key encryption scheme may have some weakness, etc. Let's just let the experts find a way out. By the way, if you want to temporarily protect your PC from this malware, you may do this.

Software Utilities and Assistance

We have been requested many times to provide download links to all the tools we have used (and developed) to reverse the encryption schemes of some ransomware. These tools include Network Sniffers, TCP/IP Traffic Dumpers, Hex Editors, Debuggers and so on. For those of you who like to get hands down to work, we'll gladly provide you with them. If you are not a computer geek and just need assistance, send us an E-mail and we'll try to fix your problem. Bear in mind that we get many requests per day, so you must be patient! Sincerely, the HD team.

Update: CryptoDefense rebranded to CryptoWall

After the fortune they reaped with CryptoDefense, not only did the crooks buy more computers from a bot net. They also rebranded it to 'CryptoWall' and made considerable changes to its website: + Multilanguage Support + Slight color changes in their website. Now it looks nicer, I confess. + Support (You can message them in case you need help)  - Their English sucks, so I haven't noticed any improvement in this area. * Ransomware notes are now named as: DECRYPT_INSTRUCTION.txt DECRYPT_INSTRUCTION.html DECRYPT_INSTRUCTION.url What does it mean to 'buy computers'? Most computers that were hit by this nasty ransomware had been previosuly infected by a botnet. A botnet is a network of infected computers that can be spied and controlled by their masters (those who own the botnet network).  These computer programs are usually used to gather users' credentials to home-banking and to perform DDoS attacks on websites, etc. (Yes, you can pay these croo
