The worst part is that even though the malware’s creators may claim they can decrypt affected files, in reality, it is not possible due to the method used to encipher them.

Ordinypt Wiper is spread through phishing emails. Besides the message saying the sender wants to apply for a particular job position at the targeted company, such emails should also contain a couple of files. The first one is a photo of a young woman, which is probably just a random photo taken from one of the websites that offer free images. The second file should be a ZIP archive containing a file disguised as a PDF document. In reality, the file in the archive is a malicious executable that launches Ordinypt Wiper if it gets opened.

The phishing email with such contents should come from a person called Eva Richter. Naturally, if you get an email from this person and it includes files we described, we advise not to open them. Another thing that employers should know is that businesses are targeted quite often, which is why it is essential to educate employees so they could recognize phishing attacks. It is best not to open files raising suspicion or coming from unknown sources. Also, we highly recommend scanning data received via emails with a chosen antimalware tool first.

As mentioned earlier, the Trojan may encrypt various files considered to be valuable to targeted victims. Afterward, the malicious application should show a ransom note in which hackers behind Ordinypt Wiper demand to pay a ransom in exchange for tools that could decrypt locked files. Of course, such tools are offered not free of charge. The sum is not mentioned, but considering that the targeted victims are various companies, the price could be huge. The problem is that it might be impossible to decrypt any files despite what cybercriminals may promise. According to researchers, each file might be overwritten with random characters, which is not the same as having them encrypted. In other words, even if victims pay ransoms, it is doubtful they will get their files back. It is more likely that the money will be lost in vain. What’s even worse is that Ordinypt Wiper might erase all shadow copies to prevent victims from restoring their data. Thus, the only other way to get enciphered data back might be to replace it with backup copies from removable media devices, cloud storage, and so on.
