Mistakes can easily occur when malware developers use patchwork code and dabble in cryptography without appropriate expertise. This is not the first time X-Force sees faulty encryption mechanisms save the day for victimized organizations. While rare, ransomware developers can make mistakes in the ways they implement encryption, causing unintended flaws. This allowed our team to develop a fast-acting decryptor and help customers recover from the attack without a decryption key. X-Force has found that samples that infected organizational networks featured flawed encryption. IBM Security X-Force researchers have recently reverse-engineered Prometheus ransomware samples as part of ongoing incident response operations.
