Entropy across the file

Shannon entropy (0–8) of 9,504-byte windows. Code and data sit around 4–6; a plateau above 7.2 means compressed or encrypted content (packed code, embedded archives, encrypted payloads). 0% of the file is above it.

File layout on disk

Each part of the file at its real size. Data after the last section (an overlay) is where droppers and installers often hide a payload.

Byte map

Byte map of the file

The whole file as a 128×128 picture: each pixel is 148.5 bytes, laid along a Hilbert curve so that bytes close in the file stay close in the picture and each part shows as a block. Starts top-left, ends top-right.

  • Compressed / encrypted 1.2%
  • Dense data 4.1%
  • Code / structured data 58.9%
  • Low entropy (headers, tables) 29.7%
  • Text / strings 5.4%
  • 0x00 padding 0.8%

Cryptographic constants 5

Tables and constants of the algorithms compiled into the file, recognised without running or decrypting anything. A locker that brings its own cipher (ChaCha20, AES, Curve25519) needs no CryptoAPI import; many legitimate programs carry the same libraries, so this is context, not a verdict.

Generated YARA rule

Drafted from this file's static analysis: strings the analyzer found (PDB path, embedded indicators, names, behaviour evidence), the imphash for PE files, and the exact SHA-256 as a fallback. Review and tune it before deploying.

IOC matches are re-checked against the database every time this page loads. YARA and static analysis ran once, when the file was first analysed (analyzer v6).

Only hash and embedded IOCs that Ransomware.live has published at TLP:CLEAR or TLP:GREEN are checked. "No match" does not mean the file is safe.
