Chennai: The Government’s Public Department of the Tamil Nadu is under an evil ransomware on Friday, produces several files that are locked by a 16-digit encryption code that functions as a unique ID of the criminals.
When the official tries to open a locked file, the unique ID appears requires the payment of a large number of files.
Until late at night on Saturday, the official team of elcot owned by the state and they were taken from titles such as the Center for Face Computing Development (C-DAC) and Thiruvananthapuram Forensic Lab Unit – Computer Emergency Response Team – analyzed the level of damage and facilities to unlock the file.
They cannot unlock the file or retrieve the data stored in it.
“There is no compromised security data,” said a officer to Ti, adding that the file containing the protocol settings such as settings of function, expenditure, bill settlement, speech of independence day and invitation card has been encrypted and locked.
However, because most of these details have been copied in drives pens to be brought to high permission for permission, all have backup data.
Most of the general desktop departments are missing-time models that are not supported by updates, said other officers, adding that even the anti-virus software purchased is not paid and has been updated.
Because the Secretary level officials have not been targeted or the sensitive department compromised, the first Ransomware attack on the Department of Government of Tamil Nadu was seen as a warning, and suggestions were being prepared to ensure that the department remained alert to the violation.
