Introducing Her Royal Highness, the Princess Locker Ransomware

 Today we bring you Princess Locker; the ransomware only royalty could love.  First discovered byMichael Gillespie, Princess Locker encrypts a victim's data and then demands a hefty ransom amount of 3 bitcoins, or approximately $1,800 USD, to purchase a decryptor. If payment is not made in the specified timeframe, then the ransom payment doubles to 6 bitcoins

Not much is known about Princess Locker other than having seen a few encrypted files and ransom notes uploaded to ID-Ransomware.  From what has been gather gathered, when a person is infected, the ransomware will encrypt the victim's files and then append a random extension to encrypted files and a unique ID is created for the victim. This ID, extension, and encryption is then most likely sent up to the ransomware's Command & Control server. 

Ransom notes are also created and displayed, which are named!_HOW_TO_RESTORE_[extension].TXT and !_HOW_TO_RESTORE_[extension].html.

These ransom notes contain the victim's ID and links to the TOR payment sites where a victim can login to see payment information. 

The Princess Locker Payment Site

The Princess Locker payment site is your standard ransomware site with no special features. When victim's access the Princess Locker payment site they will be greeted with a page asking them to select a language that looks almost identical to Cerber's language selection page.
