WildFire rises from the grave as the rebranded Hades Locker
released on 2016-10-05 @ 11:54:52 PM
The WildFire Locker ransomware has risen from the dead and rebranded itself using the apropos name of Hades Locker. In late August, WildFire Locker disappeared after the organizations behind NoMoreRansom.org were able to seize control of the ransomware's Command & Control servers. This allowed NoMoreRansom to gain access to many of the decryption keys for the ransomware's victims. Unfortunately, the ransomware developers were not apprehended and it now appears they have been biding their time before releasing a new ransomware.
