Snatch

Snatch is a high-risk malware infection categorized as ransomware. The group uses ransomware to encrypt computer data and blackmail victims by demanding ransom payments. The group’s executables force Windows devices to reboot to Safe Mode even before the encryption process begins in a bid to bypass endpoint protection that often does not run in this mode. Snatch operators released nine variants of the malware, which append different extensions after data is encrypted with AES cipher.
