"value": "Earlier this month, we discovered a piece of encryption malware targeting Russian users. One of its peculiarities was that it uses Telegram Messenger\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s communication protocol to send a decryption key to the threat actor. To our knowledge, this is the first cryptor to use the Telegram protocol in an encryption malware case.\r\nWhat is a cryptor?\r\n\r\nIn general, cryptors can be classified into two groups: those which maintain offline encryption and those which don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t.\r\n\r\nThere are several reasons why file encryption malware requires an Internet connection. For instance, the threat actors may send an encryption key to the cryptor and receive data from it which they can later use to decrypt the victim\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s encrypted files.\r\n\r\nObviously, a special service is required on the threat actor\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s side to receive data from the cryptor malware. That service must be protected from third-party researchers, and this creates extra software development costs."
