[QUOTE="struppigel, post: 967365, member: 86910"] We created a small tool that applies a vaccine to protect a system from STOP ransomware. The vaccine works for current versions of STOP/DJVU ransomware. It prevents encryption of the files but not the infection itself. If STOP ransomware infects a system with the vaccine, it will still place ransom notes and may change system settings, but it will not encrypt. The ransom notes will display a message that the vaccine prevented encryption instead of the personal id.
