A modified version of the open-source ransomware project called desuCrypt is being used as the base code for a new ransomware family being actively distributed. This family currently has two variants being distributed, with one appending the .insane extension and the other appending .DEUSCRYPT.
The good news is that a decryptor has been released for the Insane version and the Deuscrypt variant is currently being analyzed for weaknesses as well.
Update 1/22/18 2:43PM EST: Michael's decryptor has now been updated to support the Deuscrypt variant as well.
