In many countries ransomware has been affecting all areas of society. People with low income are most often being hit by ransomware. The level of ransoms being demanded is way above what victims can afford. Some victims pay but never get their data back. Here data recovery experts try to help these victims. Often ransomware has encrypted or intentionally damaged files. The challenge is not to be underestimated. This where the tool CryptCleaner was been widely accepted as a great initiative. Many experienced companies are now supporting the development by helping to translate the application into 20 different languages. The number of regional support partners is growing. They will get access to a special edition of CryptCleaner (laboratory edition) in order to have a wide range of research tools. The funding for this project is not based on government payments or investment funding. Development is primarily financed by selling licenses worldwide. Pricing is set to not put unnecessary financial burden on victims and those who want to protect themselves against future attacks. The development roadmap will lead to users gradually getting new protective tools with regular updates. The tool is focused on windows users who are most affected by ransomware criminality. At the moment the software is usable in English, German, Finnish, Dutch, Portuguese. Next release will include Bulgarian, Italian, Punjabi, Hindi.
