Found an interesting hack to prevent some Locky samples, simply add either of those registry keys:
It was verified with the following Locky payloads: (SHA-256)
Code: Select all
It looks also for:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\ESET
HKLM\SOFTWARE\AVAST Software
Code: Select all
but it just alters its behaviour and does not terminate after it is found.HKLM\SOFTWARE\KasperskyLab
It was verified with the following Locky payloads: (SHA-256)
Code: Select all
It is far from 100% of the samples, but still - quite nice :)78e9558a9762cf778a3ba9ba61e0ec73e8d81c22d0945e56ea75d197c512883a
