They say on their webpage "Today we’re happy to announce that our collaboration with the Romanian Police, Europol and other law enforcement agencies has yielded another new decryptor for all GandCrab ransomware versions released since October 2018.
If you need to decrypt versions 1, 4 and up through 5.1, then download and run our brand new tool:"

When he is not documenting sophisticated strains of malware or writing removal tools, he teaches extreme sports such as surfing the web without protection or rodeo with wild Trojan horses. He believes that most things in life can be beat with strong heuristics and that antimalware research is like working for a secret agency: you need to stay focused at all times, but you get all the glory when you catch the bad guys.




















They saved me from a huge disaster with my personal files, that were encrypted on the 2nd of February 2019 by a ransomware virus called GandGrab v 5.1, leaving a .txt file in every folder containing infected files with this message:







---=    GANDCRAB V5.1    =---
