Despites the little ransom amount, you are not advised to contacting with cyber criminals and following orders from them. They can mislead you into installing spyware and keyloggers as well.

Luckily, the statement is false, say freelance security expert. It is just a social engineering technique to convince victims into making ransom payment. Next, you should make note that OgreRSMWRE.exe file will arrive onto your computer via Junk email attachments or along with fake software updates. Even by mistake, the EXE file gets executed, within few minutes you find encrypted files featuring .ogre extension. Encoded files will not be accessible and none of your Windows applications will be able to either open or recognize it. Its encryption process begins with creating scheduled task and malicious registry entries on compromised system. Significantly, it also creates Autorun file to set itself as a Startup program. However, Ogre ransomware always stays away from crucial system files. Hence, it can not corrupt your Windows operating system.

Safeguarding Computer Against Ogre ransomware Attacks

We have to clear that at the time of writing Ogre ransomware developers haven't started spreading it widely. They only submitted few samples online in order to check if AV scanner identify it or not. Guess what there are few AV scanners that are capable of detecting malicious files associated with or created by Ogre virus on the compromised computer. Hence, if you keep a multi-layered security software installed and up-to-date onto your computer then you can expect real time protection against the new threat being released every day.

At this time, instead paying off ransom, you should try alternative data recovery options to decode your files. You can use Professional Data recovery software or System Restore point to restore your original files. As of this time, we suggest you to delete Ogre ransomware as soon as possible.
