yes that's why I have backups

1.) Common Sense will prevent 99% of infections
2.) Backup important data, you fucking retard

kys pajeet

Backups also got encrypted through mounted SMB share.

that's why I have my backup drives unconnected

and cloud backups of important data

and backups of the cloud backup on another server

Can happen to anyone.

Ay lmao

>always-on, always mounted backups
So they are not actually backups?

Good thing that I got hit by 5.0.4. which is undecryptable otherwise I would really kys after checking that link.

Not only do winshits use an OS so shit it can be hijacked and have data encrypted without your express permission, they'll actually trust it enough not to keep backups.
Pathetic.

Because ransomware is exclusive to windows

nop

>nu-sjwfox user is a retarded cuckold
What else is new?

how can something encrypt your hard without you noticing the disc activity ?

It's Tor browser, retard.

No. My most sensitive data is in external hard drives. The rest is just furry porn I can redownload.

You got to hand it to these Russian freaks, at least they follow through on the bargain and actually give you the tool.

Still hope they rot in Gulag or CIA black site

>Russian.
It's North Korea making money for great leaders liquor payments.

Poltard, please leave

I actually got ransomware in my virtual machine when running dubious exe files and keygen

although i dont mind getting my machine ransomware'd since i create backups all the time

>main drive
You mean my 30gb ssd for OS only purposes? Because thats the only drive I have on my computer. My actual data is on a external drive and is backed up into two seperate hard drives one of which is offsite.

show me ransomware that works on OpenBSD

But that's not true, user.

That isn't a backup user.

>actually giving money to criminals

>30 days guarantee
how nice of them

nah but retardation is

How the fuck did you manage to get the ransomware in the first place?

That's not a backup, you fucking retard. It's a RAID 1.

Jow Forums never stops surprising me

I took time to notice the bus (or video) is going backwards

nit's worth exactly the price of my backup disks

>offsite
On a scale from 1/10 how paranoid are you?

Veeam doesn't need a mounted share

paranoid...? let me put it to you this way, after you have a state attorneys office investigator ask you politely if you can hand them your backup hard drive, there is a certain level of paranoia that stays with you.

>Not backup to FTP server hosted by yourself in other room at least in case of fire/flood....
>2019
I wonder sometimes why is this called Jow Forums

how much did you pay for the btc fee?

yep

he is literately justified lol. I live in a coutry outside of the western jew world and i have multiple backups only in case some of them brake. I cannot imagine how many more i would have if i also had to take the corrupted leftist state into account.

no i have backups unlike your mongoloid ass

>show me anything that works on OpenBSD
ftfy

I had leftover BTC in account from way back so I just used that, didn't have to buy any more.

Just looking at wallet it did remind me that I had $2.6k worth of it at the height of the bubble and now I'm left with basically nothing.

I also managed to fuck up transaction fee, was set way too low by default and queue only started to grow on top of my transaction, would have waited for days to clear. Learned about CPFP, did another transaction but again fucked it up because fee is now split upon two transaction so had to do it for third time with 3x amount of fee and it finally cleared.

I'm so beta at everything it hurts.

how retarded do you need to be to actually get infected by ramsonware and then pay them lmao

desu the only data that is worth a lot to me are ex nudes but I have that backed up in 5 different places

It is. That's why I don't use w*ndows
Opening suspicious emails

What are some symptoms of ransomware running on your system? Do the files typically change name or do they stay the same but just become unreadable as the encryption process commences?

Daddy Microsoft can take care of you.

running a little program called rsync once a month could have saved you from all this

so you got a lesson. now here's some tips on how you can learn from it,

buy 3 external HDDs fitting the amount of data you value.

backup monthly and rotate the drives and keep them not in your home while not in use

if your system is compromised and your backup is screwed and you find out a week later then you're fine. if one of the backup HDDs fail you're also fine.

it does involve manual labor, so there is a downside, you have to do something once every month. there's also an upside, it would take a lot to put you in a situation where you have no working backup.

it's typically not very sneaky. you get infected, it starts encrypting your files on every drive and share it can access and then you get a random demand on your screen. it's not like the good old ms-dos viruses who didn't do much at all beyond trying to spread, you could have one of those for years and you wouldn't notice.

I wish I had money to spend on useless shit

I don't have any storage space to do backups on user

>the randsomware has a live support chat
fucking lol

String is added after extension on every encrypted file.

txt file with instructions and crypto key is created in every directory.

Shit is so nicely coded. It automatically deletes every trace of itself after encryption is completed. Tor web frontend is nicely done, decryption also works flawlessly, everything is fast and streamlined for victim. 10/10 would use it again.

just off yourself. alternatively buy more hdds.

buying enough space to do a full backup would cost about what the criminals would charge me lmao, and then I have to do more work and lose all the day in the last [time since last backup]

literally a lose-lose scenario

they even have a warranty lmao
it makes sense since they deal with people with so low iq as to get ransomware on their computers

Please just delete this thread and fuck off you waste of oxygen.

Its worthless like me

>Steam

>don't want to uninstall games from steam
Why?
You know that all your settings and progress gets saved right? You really don't need to keep that game you haven't played for half a year on the drive.

It's all pirated anyway, so I don't give a fuck, I can just redownload everything since I'm not a datacap americuck

I have shit internet where I am so anything I think I'll play in the future I keep

Had the same situation at company where I worked. Some ancient software requires open shares to function, someone got email with invoice.exe or something similar and was so determined to open it that it clicked through multiple layers of confirmations.

First option was restoring 3 days old backup and having to deal with setting up ancient crapware importing all certificates from usb keys and fine tuning it to working state over couple of day or waste other peoples $300, pocket a little BTC overhead and browse chans.

The best security is to have no important files. The most important thing to me is my meme folder and I don't even care about that

>think I'll play
You see, here's the problem.
You're not going to play them, at least not for another year, probably even more, after all, it's already half a year.
They aren't worth wasting the space.
You can do it! I believe in you! All you have to do is hit that delete.
You'll be fine, I promise. It'll hurt a little, but you'll be better for it! Hoarding is a very bad and expensive habit, as you've already seen.

how can you take that just browsing emails? do you even have an AV or AD Blocker?

Nope. Nuke my drive and every other drive I own. You'll be doing me a favor. I love minimalism and have a bad issue with hoarding junk.

Also
>using windows
lol

I've even heard they actually give you decryption keys for free if long time has passed without making payment.

How does it feel to be literally retarded?

wtf I support the free market now

Well, OP?

>lainposting
>having less than 20TiB of data
outta here you go.

4TB isn't a lot to have and like I said, I have shitty internet here

I got over my hoarding, fortunately.
After all, all I need is my images.
I do still have a bit of issues with my flac music collection.
>4TB
It would be cheaper for you to run backups then, it would cost about $300 for 12 TB of storage, that's what I based it on.

>Because ransomware is exclusive to windows
Is there ransomware that works on Solaris 11.4? What about NetBSD 8? Please, I would love to hear of the latest pajeet scheme that has been compiled to run on SPARC systems

>using the virgin SPARC instead of the chad MIPS

He is totally right though. If your data means that much then make sure you don't loose it.

what did you get rid of?
it's okay to stop avatarfagging now.

dont try, i lost contact with a friend after trying to explain to him why buying 4th HDD in 2 years for games is retarded.

A bit of the same boat as his. Lots and lots of games.
I also had a bunch of archived stuff from CTF challenges.
I didn't part with all of it willingly, but I do feel that I'm better for it.

in china all traffic goes backwards, that way if they run someone over they can claim no fault

>MIPS
enjoy getting nothing done ever

It is, Linux users have no money to pay ransoms with

>chmod +x linkin_park.mp3.sh
>sudo ./linkin_park.mp3.sh
lolk

>managing to install ransomware in any year
>unironically paying to have your data decrypted when there's a 80% chance you will never receive a reply or decryption key

yikes Jow Forums is truly dead

Hah. You know some retard would fall for it.

OP how are you such a fucking brainlet? How could you 1. Actually install ransomware in 2019 and 2. ACTUALLY PAY THE MONEY EVEN THOUGH THEY'LL JUST TAKE IT AND RUN
