Damage Ransomware Data Recovery

What is Damage Ransomware?

Damage Ransomware is a type of malware that encrypts your files and demands a ransom to decrypt them. It usually arrives on your computer via email attachments or malicious websites. Once it’s installed, it will scan your hard drive for files to encrypt. Damage Ransomware will then append the “.damage” extension to the encrypted files and display a ransom note with instructions on how to pay the ransom and decrypt your files. Damage Ransomware is a serious threat to your computer and you should remove it as soon as possible.
