These parties measure the actual performance and protection of competing solutions. These studies can be vital, providing the kind of unvarnished, professional analysis that most MSPs, VARs and IT pros cannot do on their own – helping them determine whether or not the vendor they use (or are considering) will protect data against today’s threat landscape.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/decisions-decisions-how-msps-can-use-third-party-reports-when-considering-ransomware-solutions/)

Called HILDACRYPT, it is named after the Netflix cartoon “Hilda” because the TV show’s YouTube trailer was included in the ransom note of the original version of the malware. HILDACRYPT camouflages itself as a legitimate XAMPP installer, which is an easy to install Apache distribution containing MariaDB, PHP, and Perl. However, the cryptolocker’s file name ‘xamp’ differs from the legitimate version. Moreover, the ransomware file does not have a digital signature. We took a deep dive into this new cyberthreat to show how it works and how you can help overcome its attack with Acronis Cyber Backup.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/hildacrypt-ransomware-newcomer-hits-backup-and-anti-virus-solutions/)
