How to defend against WannaCry

Unfortunately, there is currently nothing that can be done to decrypt files that have been encrypted by WannaCry (however our researchers are on it). This means that the only method to fight against infection is to not get infected in the first place.

Here are several pieces of advice on how to prevent infection and minimize damage.

1. If you already have Kaspersky Lab security solution installed on your system, then we recommend doing the following: manually run a scan for critical areas, and if the solution detects a malware like MEM:Trojan.Win64.EquationDrug.gen (this is how our anti-virus solutions detect WannaCry), then you should reboot your system.

2. If you’re our customer, keep the System Watcher on, it’s essential to fight new varieties of the malware that might emerge.

3. Install software updates. This case earnestly calls for installing the system security update MS17-010 for all Windows users, especially when Microsoft even released it for systems that are not officially supported anymore, such as Windows XP or Windows 2003. Seriously, install it right now. Now is exactly the time when it’s really important.

4. Create file backup copies on a regular basis and store the copies on storage devices that are not constantly connected to the computer. If there is a recent backup copy, then encryptor infection is not a catastrophe but a loss of several hours spent on system re-installation. If you do not feel like creating backups by yourself, then you can take advantage of a backup feature built into Kaspersky Total Security that can automate the process.
