You need to boot into the Windows Recovery Environment to apply all these fixes. Therefore, before proceeding, let’s see how you can enter the Windows Recovery Environment. Since you cannot boot into Windows, you have to interrupt the normal boot process of Windows to enter the Windows Recovery Environment. Follow these steps:

3. Press and hold the power button immediately when you see the manufacturer’s or Windows logo on your screen.

On a working computer, visit the official Microsoft website and download the Windows 11 ISO file. Now, use third-party software, like Rufus, to create a bootable USB flash drive with Windows 11 ISO. Once you are done, connect the USB flash drive to your computer and boot from it.

Your system should automatically detect the connected bootable USB flash drive. However, if it can’t, change the boot order in BIOS. Use the right BIOS key to enter your system BIOS.

Once you boot with a bootable USB flash drive, you will see the Windows 11 installation screen. Do not proceed with Windows 11 installation. Instead, click the Repair my PC. Now, select your keyboard language on the next screen. After that, you will be in the Windows Recovery Environment.

In era digitala moderna, securitatea sistemelor informatice reprezinta una dintre cele mai critice responsabilitati ale unui administrator de sistem (System Administrator). Administratorii de sistem sunt responsabili de mentinerea integritatii, disponibilitatii si confidentialitatii infrastructurii IT a unei organizatii.

Prezentul referat abordeaza o situatie reala si frecventa intalnita in practica: detectarea si gestionarea unui atac de tip ransomware asupra serverelor unei companii de dimensiuni medii. Prin analiza acestui scenariu si aplicarea unui plan structurat in 6 pasi, vom demonstra cum un System Administrator experimentat poate interveni eficient pentru a limita daunele si a restaura functionalitatea sistemelor.

O companie din sectorul financiar, cu aproximativ 150 de angajati, opereaza o retea interna formata din 3 servere fizice (Windows Server 2019), 2 servere Linux (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS) si aproximativ 120 de statii de lucru. In dimineata zilei de luni, la ora 07:45, administratorul de sistem primeste alarme multiple din sistemul de monitorizare (Zabbix) si sesizari de la angajati ca nu pot accesa fisierele de pe serverul de fisiere.

Simptomele identificate

• Fisierele de pe serverul principal sunt criptate si au extensia .locked adaugata
• Apare un fisier README_DECRYPT.txt pe desktop-urile mai multor utilizatori
• Traficul de retea catre domenii externe necunoscute a crescut brusc in noaptea precedenta
• Serviciul de backup automat a esuat cu 3 zile in urma fara ca nimeni sa observe
• Un cont de utilizator cu privilegii ridicate a fost compromis (phishing via email).
