The virus collects information about the victim’s computer and then tries to establish a connection with its command server (C&C). Upon execution, Qbaa creates a folder in the Windows system directory where it places a copy of itself and changes some Windows settings so that it starts up every time the computer is restarted or turned on. Typically, Qbaa can infect a computer when installing programs downloaded from torrent web-sites as well as when running activators, cracked games, key generators and other similar software. It sneaks into the system without any visible symptoms, which is why users notice that their computer is infected too late, when the files are already encrypted. Qbaa ransomware is the 412th version of ransomware called STOP (Djvu). Screenshot of files encrypted by Qbaa virus (‘.qbaa’ file extension) QUICK LINKS
