Ransom Away
Description
Ransom Away 1.0.3 was available to download from the developer's website when we last checked. We cannot confirm if there is a free download of this software available. We recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus. This free tool was originally created by Secured Globe Inc. The most popular version among Ransom Away users is 1.0. Ransom Away lies within Security Tools, more precisely Antivirus.
From the developer:
RansomAway prevents the Petia Ransomware from attacking. It has been discovered that the Petya Ransomware checks for a read-only file and if it finds it, it won't run the encryption side of the software. One of the ways to fight Ransomware is to 'immune' a PC against it. That is what RansomAway does. This tool creates a dummy read only file by that name that makes Petia think the PC was already being attacked.
