Ransomware is one of the major problems computer users have come across in recent years. They are not
like regular malware or viruses that may do damage to system files or slow down your internet connection.
These type of infections are more dangerous because they lock your data and then demand money to
unlock it. If your beloved computer is infected by ransomware, chances are it will block the user from
accessing a section of their computer. If the user wants to gain access, they will be required to pay. Basically,
a users computer is held hostage by hackers, and they demand a ransom to set it free.
How to check for & tell if you have ransomware? Well, if your computer is infected you will not be able to
open your files as they might have been encrypted. Plus you will receive a ransomware note making
demands. How do you identify the ransomware by name?ID Ransomware is a free online services, will

Identify Ransomware
Although you may taken the normal precautions to prevent ransomware (http://www.thewindowsclub.com
/prevent-ransomware-windows), you never know when you could be hit. Unlike real life hostage situations,
theres no negotiation here, either pay up or do without being able to access important files.
To tackle this ransomware issue, theres a website that goes by the name, ID Ransomware. It doesnt clear a
computer system of ransomware, but it can help the user detect what type of ransomware they are dealing
with in order to gain further help elsewhere.
Simply locate the ransom note and upload it to the website via the Ransom Note section. Furthermore, it is
also possible to upload encrypted files via the option on the right-hand side of the web page.
Bear in mind that ID Ransomware is not capable of decrypting files, users will be required to find an
alternative or seek out a professional. We understand that ID Ransomware can detect up to 54 infections,
which is quite a lot seeing as ransomwares are not widespread.

For those who might be wondering, yes, your data uploaded to the ID Ransomware website (https://idransomware.malwarehunterteam.com/index.php) is confidential, well, according to the website itself. We
cant vouch for it, so folks will just have to them by their word.
Overall, a solid service that works well. However, seeing as it works in the browser, an internet connection
will always be needed, so were hoping an offline version will be released in the future to come.
