CryptoBuster is an effective anti-ransomware solution with a small system footprint that can work side by side with your existing security product to offer an additional security layer and form the last line of defense against ransomware to protect your valuable data from damage.
Anti-Ransomware Honeypots
CryptoBuster uses honeypots, which is an efficient and proven technique with low false-positive chances to detect and stop ransomware when they start to encrypt user files. You have full control over the honeypots creation process as you can either create honeypots manually customizing their names and locations or you can leave this job to CryptoBuster that can deploy hundreds of honeypots in strategic system locations with custom names and file types designed to allow ransomware to target those files before they can reach any of your important files.

Active System Monitoring
Besides Honeypots that are effective to stop ransomware when they start to encrypt user files, CryptoBuster can intelligently monitor the file system to detect malicious activities that may indicate an ongoing ransomware attack or sometimes indicate the preparations for an attack. For example, CryptoBuster can detect the creation of files with extensions that are known to be used by ransomware to encrypt user files, also you can configure CryptoBuster to detect the creation of potentially dangerous files like batch files and scripts that are commonly used in ransomware attacks, or even to detect the creation of files of unknown types which is an aggressive technique used to stop most of the ransomware strains that change file extensions.

Full Protection Control
CryptoBuster was built to be a user-friendly and configurable anti-ransomware solution that is why it comes with a full range of tools and settings to allow you to customize all ransomware protection aspects provided by CryptoBuster and to have full control over actions made by the software. You can choose which protection module to enable and configure how this module works, configure automatic actions to perform in response to a specific event or disable this automatic response by setting CryptoBuster to monitor and report only. CryptoBuster comes with Security History feature that logs every security issue detected and actions performed by CryptoBuster; this would allow experienced users to understand how CryptoBuster works and the best way to configure the protection settings for best performance and user experience.

FAQ:
What is CryptoBuster?
CryptoBuster is an anti-ransomware solution designed to be installed side by side with your existing security product to offer an additional security layer against ransomware attacks and fill the gaps that your security solution may have failed to cover; this will ensure maximum protection for your valuable data from damage by ransomware.
How can CryptoBuster protect my data?
CryptoBuster Beta uses two techniques to detect and stop ransomware attacks. The first detection method is honeypots, which are bait files that CryptoBuster creates in strategic system locations with customized names that allow honeypot files to be targeted by ransomware before they start to encrypt the user’s files. CryptoBuster closely monitors those honeypots and will automatically suspend and terminate any program that messes with them.
Besides honeypots, CryptoBuster can monitor the File System to detect any malicious activities that may indicate a ransomware attack like the creation of files with extensions known to be used by ransomware to encrypt user’s files, the creation of potentially dangerous files like scripts and batch files that are commonly used in ransomware attacks or even files with fake extensions that attackers use to disguise harmful executables as normal documents. Unlike honeypots, which can only detect ongoing ransomware attacks, the File Extensions Monitor can detect and stop ransomware in an early stage before they start to encrypt the user’s files.
Can CryptoBuster replace my existing security solution?
No, for two reasons. Firstly, CryptoBuster does not protect your computer from other malware types like viruses, spyware, trojans.
Secondly, CryptoBuster was designed to work with other third-party security solutions to form the last line of defense against ransomware, especially the never-seen strains. Therefore, the current CryptoBuster Beta cannot intercept and block ransomware from modifying system settings and files. However, it can monitor the system for malicious activities and automatically respond to ongoing attacks to protect your data from permanent damage or at least minimize that damage.
Will CryptoBuster slow down my computer?
CryptoBuster is intended to be used with other security products to increase protection against ransomware. For that reason, we built our anti-ransomware solution to have a small system footprint so that it won’t affect the system performance.
Does CryptoBuster offer protection against data exfiltration?
Unfortunately, the current Beta release does not offer such protection; however, we are working on a technique to protect your data from being exfiltrated by threat actors.
What languages does CryptoBuster support?
The current CryptoBuster Beta only supports English; however, we plan to support more languages in the upcoming releases.
