Gang Surrenders Key to TeslaCrypt Ransomware Kingdom

Eset on Wednesday announced that it has fashioned a free tool that victims of all variants of the TeslaCrypt ransomware can use to unlock affected files. After the criminal gang behind TeslaCrypt recently abandoned support of the malicious software, an Eset analyst contacted the group anonymously, using the channel TeslaCrypt's operators offered to ransomware victims, and asked for the universal master decryption key, the company said. To Eset's surprise, the operators made it public.
