What is LASAN?
LASAN ransomware, also known as DRV ransomware, is the newest virus everyone can possibly face. It doesn’t belong to any already known family of file-encryption ransomware viruses. Attacks of LASAN ransomware are always unpredictable due to the ways it spreads. Often hackers inject the code of the virus into a regular file and send it by email. Once such a file is opened, the code is immediately executed. However, the most widely used one is the usage of installers. Such installers are shared by file free sharing services, torrent trackers or even by specially made websites. As the rule, malicious installers imitate ones issued by trustful companies. That’s why the most of users don’t even suppose, that the file is infected. Once the virus successfully gets into the system, it makes changes in the Registry and infects system processes. Then it searches for the files to encrypt. As the result, the files get new “.lasan” extension and unreadable for any software. Then the virus drops the note, called “READ_ME.txt”. Generally, by the means of such notes hackers promote the decryptors for the files, but in our case it left only the questionable message. Hackers don’t ask for any payment and don’t say that there is a decryptor. Still, we have a way out. For this purpose we’ve prepared the detailed guide on how to remove LASAN ransomware and decrypt.lasan files.
