What is Warlock dark army virus?

Warlock dark army will add its own .warlockdarkarmyofficials extension to every file’s name. For instance, an image entitled “photo.jpg” will be renamed to “photo.jpg.warlockdarkarmyofficials”.

In every directory that contains the encrypted files, a read_it.txt file will appear. It is a ransom money memo. It contains information on the ways of paying the ransom and some other remarks. The ransom note most probably contains instructions on how to purchase the decryption tool from the racketeers. You can obtain this tool after contacting @WARLOCK_MAK (Telegram) through email.

How did my computer get infected with Warlock dark army ransomware?

Nowadays, there are three most popular ways for tamperers to have the Warlock dark army virus planted in your digital environment. These are email spam, Trojan infiltration and peer-to-peer file transfer.

If you open your inbox and see letters that look like familiar notifications from utility services companies, delivery agencies like FedEx, Internet providers, and whatnot, but whose “from” field is strange to you, be wary of opening those letters. They are most likely to have a malware item attached to them. So it is even riskier to open any attachments that come with emails like these.

Another thing the hackers might try is a Trojan file model². A Trojan is an object that infiltrates into your computer disguised as something different. Imagine, you download an installer for some program you want or an update for some program. However, what is unboxed turns out to be a harmful program that compromises your data. As the update wizard can have any name and any icon, you have to make sure that you can trust the resource of the things you’re downloading. The best thing is to trust the software companies’ official websites.

As for the peer file transfer protocols like torrents or eMule, the threat is that they are even more trust-based than the rest of the Internet. You can never know what you download until you get it. Our suggestion is that you use trustworthy websites. Also, it is reasonable to scan the folder containing the downloaded objects with the anti-malware utility as soon as the downloading is complete.
