The attacks have hit organizations around the world, with victims in countries such as the US, Australia, and the UK.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Targeting Windows systems, and written in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/programming-languages-one-in-four-go-developers-are-already-using-this-most-requested-feature\/\" rel=\"follow\">open-source programming language<\/a> Go, BianLian uses an encryption technique that divides files into chunks, which helps it to encrypt systems at high speed, as well as helping it to avoid detection before the encryption has been completed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Once this process is completed, victims are presented with a ransom note telling them they&#8217;ve been hit with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/ransomware-an-executive-guide-to-one-of-the-biggest-menaces-on-the-web\/\" rel=\"follow\">ransomware<\/a> and that they need to contact the attackers to &#8220;restore&#8221; their data. Options for doing this include an encrypted messaging app or email. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/ransomware-has-now-become-a-problem-for-everyone-and-not-just-tech\/\" rel=\"follow\">Ransomware has now become a problem for everyone, and not just tech<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The BianLian attackers also warn victims that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/one-in-seven-ransomware-extortion-attempts-leak-key-business-operation-data\/\" rel=\"follow\">they&#8217;ve stolen data and will publish it<\/a> if they don&#8217;t receive a ransom payment within 10 days.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But now victims have the chance to retrieve their files without paying the ransom, because <a href=\"https:\/\/decoded.avast.io\/threatresearch\/decrypted-bianlian-ransomware\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">cybersecurity researchers at Avast have developed and released a free BianLian ransomware decryption tool<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, the researchers warn that the decryptor can only restore files encrypted by a known variant of the BianLian ransomware &#8212; new versions that appear won&#8217;t be decrypted by the tool in its current state.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For new victims, it may be necessary to find the ransomware binary on the hard drive; however, because the ransomware deletes itself after encryption, it may be difficult to do so,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/decoded.avast.io\/threatresearch\/decrypted-bianlian-ransomware\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">said a blog post by Avast Threat
