BIP ransomware is part of the Dharma ransomware virus that is appending the .BIP extension to encrypted file names. This family of ransomware releases a new variant frequently.

If you are a victim of this variant you will be asked to make a payment by the hackers – DONT DO IT.  Most likely you will simply lose your money and it’s semi-illegal not to mention you are supporting criminals activities resulting in more and more attacks.

In order to protect yourself from the BIP variant of  Dharma, or from any other ransomware, it is important that you use good computing habits and security software. First and foremost, you should always have a reliable and tested backup of your data that can be restored in the case of an emergency, such as a ransomware attack.

You should also have security software (please talk to us about our recommendations) as most antivirus does not give you a complete protection

Last, but not least, make sure you practice the following good online security habits, which in many cases are the most important steps of all:

• Backup, Backup, Backup!
• Do not open attachments if you do not know who sent them.
• Restrict RDP access
• Make sure all Windows updates are installed as soon as they come out! Also make sure you update all programs, especially BIP, Flash, and Adobe Reader. Older programs contain security vulnerabilities that are commonly exploited by malware distributors. Therefore it is important to keep them updated.
• Make sure you have a recommended security software installed.
• Use complex passwords and never reuse the same password at multiple sites.
