Aztec ransomware is a crypto-virus, that is using AES encryption algorithms to encode all the personal data of a victim. This virus is not quite new, it is one of the countless versions of Scarab ransomware. Cyber criminals are trying to maximize their incomes by creating newer versions of Scarab to infect more users around the globe. Here is an encipher workflow: first, it read the original data; then the virus removes it; then creates the encoded files, adding extension .aztecdecrypt@protonmail.com; finally the ransomware writes the encoded files. If you got your PC infected with this virus, use this guide to remove Aztec ransomware and decrypt .aztecdecrypt@protonmail.com files.
