A new ransomware has been found in the wild that is currently undetected by antivirus engines on public scanning platforms. Its name is NextCry due to the extension appended to encrypted files and that it targets clients of the NextCloud file sync and share service.

The malware targets Nextcloud instances and for the time being there is no free decryption tool available for victims.
