Get rid of RSA-4096 ransomware and restore access to affected data through recovery routines  

RSA-4096 (all of your files were protected by a strong encryption with rsa-4096) is a header of the message the victims of ransomware stumbles upon. The message is basically a ransom note. It says that your data has been encrypted. User is prompted to pay ransom in bitcoins. The ransom amount varies, but typically exceeds USD 500.

Once ransom is paid, the victim is to receive the private key. The key serves to restore the access to scrambled information.

Removal of RSA-4096 ransomware does not restore readability of the affected data. RSA-4096 is a sophisticated cryptic method. It features asymmetric decryption so that two different codes apply to encrypt and decrypt the target data.

In any case, without the private key the data remains encrypted for sure. Each case of the encryption features unique private key. Thereby there is unlikely to be any ultimate solution for any case of the ransomware invasion.

To invade computer system, the hackers apply a number of tactics. These include, but not limited to, drive-by downloads, spamming, direct introduction into big local network.

Once inside the PC, the infection creates appropriate registry entries. The entries enable the malware to launch its processes automatically as system is loading. The very first process it spawns is memory scan. It filters detected data by extension. However, the filter lets nearly any data format through. As a result, the infection selects virtually all the data on your PC. The selected data undergoes encryption with RSA-4096 standard. The private key and the public key are issued, of which the private key is encrypted and dispatched to remote server.

The only and unlikely to be efficient measure to prevent the scam is to intercept the private key as it is being dispatched from your machine. To cope with the task, advanced firewall is needed. Such a solution would not let the ransomware land at your PC anyway.

To remove RSA-4096 (all of your files were protected by a strong encryption with rsa-4096), you need to apply relevant antimalware or verified manual removal guidance. Again, that will not undo the encryption. The removal is to be followed by recovery routines. The recovery is a means of restoring access to affected data. Paying the ransom is totally unacceptable.
