Che cos'è un file XTBL?
An XTBL file is a file encrypted by .xtbl ransomware (also known as the Troldesh trojan), a virus used by cybercriminals to hijack a user's computer files until the user pays the criminal. It contains a user's personal file, such as a .PDF, .XLSX, or .RAW file. XTBL files are encrypted with AES-265 and RSA methods.
Maggiori informazioni
The .xtbl virus is dangerous malware that is often referred to as ransomware, where the purpose of the virus is to take your files hostage and force you to pay bitcoins to the perpetrator in order to decrypt your files. The virus can attack your computer in various ways, including email spam with infected attachments or malicious links or fraudulent software updates. Once the virus affects your computer it begins scrambling your files, renaming them with random characters, and encrypting them as XTBL files.
When encrypting your files, the .xtbl virus creates README.txt files that contain information about your encrypted files and instructions for decrypting them, which includes how to pay the criminals. These files are placed in each folder that contains XTBL files.
NOTA: XTBL files are similar to .CERBER, .CERBER2, .LOCKY, and .ZZZZZ files which are all created by ransomware. Many of these files became prevalent in 2016 when the .xtbl, Cerber, and Locky viruses began infecting computers.

Avviso
FileInfo.com recommends you never pay a ransom to decrypt files encrypted by ransomware. Paying a ransom encourages ransomware distributors to continue their efforts, and there is no guarantee that paying a ransom will give you access to your files. Instead, you should restore your data from a recent backup created before the ransomware infected your computer.
