CryptoLocker protection?

Hi all,

I ran across an article about CryptoLocker. There’s instructions for helping to block this nasty little bugger — as well as caveats.

I hope this might help.

Regular backups and Limited account are the best protection :slight_smile:

What about HitmanPro’s CryptoGuard as an universal sokution against ransomware?

CryptoGuard works at the file system level and does not conflict with full disk encryption software like BitLocker, Sophos SafeGuard or TrueCrypt.
