67
|
+
this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
|
|
68
|
+
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
|
|
69
|
+
copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,

worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable

by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
|
|
80
|
+
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)

cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
|
|
84
|
+
or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
|
|
85
|
+
or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
|
|
86
|
+
granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
|
|
87
|
+
as of the date such litigation is filed.

4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
|
|
90
|
+
Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
|
|
91
|
+
modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
|
|
92
|
+
meet the following conditions:
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
(a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or Derivative
|
|
95
|
+
Works a copy of this License; and
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices

99
|
+
|
|
100
|
+
(c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
|
|
101
|
+
that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
|
|
102
|
+
attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
|
|
103
|
+
excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
|
|
104
|
+
the Derivative Works; and
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
(d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
|
|
107
|
+
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
|
|
108
|
+
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
|
|
109
|
+
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
|
|
110
|
+
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
|
|
111
|
+
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
|
|
112
|
+
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
|
|
113
|
+
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
|
|
114
|
+
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
|
|
115
|
+
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
|
|
116
|
+
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
|
|
117
|
+
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
|
|
118

+
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
|
|
119
|
+
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
|
|
120
|
+
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
|
|
121
|
+
as modifying the License.
|
|
122
|
+
|
|
123
|
+
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
|
|
124
|
+
may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
|
|
125
|
+
for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
|
|
126
|
+
for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
|
|
127
|
+
reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
|
|
128
|
+
the conditions stated in this License.
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
|
|
131
|
+
any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
|
|
132
|
+
by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
|
|
133
|
+
this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
|
|
134
|
+
Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
|
|
135
|
+
the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
|
|
136
|
+
with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
|
|
137
|
+
|
|
138
|
+
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
|
|
139
|
+
names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
|
|
140
|
+
except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
|
|
141
|
+
origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
|
|
142
|
+
|
|
143
|
+
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
|
|
144
|
+
agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
|
|
145
|
+
Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
|
|
146
|
+
WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
|
|
147
|
+
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
|
|
148
|
+
of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
|
|
149
|
+
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
|
|
150
|
+
appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
|
|
151
|
+
risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
|
|
152
|
+
|
|
153
|
+
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
|
|
154
|
+
whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
|
|
155
|
+
unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
|
|
156
|
+
negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
|
|
157
|
+
liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
|
|
158
|
+
incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
|
|
159
|
+
result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
|
|
160
|
+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
|
|
161
|
+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
|
|
162
|
+
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
|
|
163
|
+
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
|
|
164
|
+
|
|
165
|
+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
|
|
166
|
+
the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
|
|
167
|
+
and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
|
|
168
|
+
or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
|
|
169
|
+
License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
|
|
170
|
+
on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
|
|
171
|
+
of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
|
|
172
|
+
defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
|
|
173
|
+
incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
|
|
174
|
+
of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

# ScanCrypt — get back the data the ransomware never touched

Most ransomware is in a race: encrypting terabytes takes hours, so to finish before
|
|
35
|
+
it's caught it only scrambles **part** of each large file — the first chunk, or stripes
|
|
36
|
+
through it — then renames it so everything *looks* equally dead. It usually isn't.
|
|
37
|
+
|
|
38
|
+
**ScanCrypt** scans an encrypted file or disk, measures exactly which bytes were never
|
|
39
|
+
actually encrypted, and pulls those bytes back out — **no decryption key, no ransom.**
|
|
40
|
+
It is not a decryptor; it's a ransomware-aware *partial-recovery* tool. Databases, VM
|
|
41
|
+
disks, and backup archives are typically **mostly intact** underneath.

## Install
|
|
55
|
+
|
|
56
|
+
**Just want to run it?** Download the app from the
|
|
57
|
+
[releases page](https://github.com/ironsightscyber/scancrypt/releases/latest) —
|
|
58
|
+
`scancrypt-gui.exe` (Windows) is a single portable file, nothing to install, fully offline.
|
|
59
|
+
No terminal needed. New to this? Read the [plain-English guide](docs/recover.html).
|
|
60
|
+
|
|
61
|
+
**From source (any OS):**
|
|
62
|
+
|
|
63
|
+
```bash
|
|
64
|
+
python3 -m venv .venv
|
|
65
|
+
source .venv/bin/activate # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
|
|
66
|
+
pip install -e ".[ntfs]" # ".[ntfs]" adds VHDX/VHD/VMDK + NTFS support
|
|
67
|
+
scancrypt --help # or: python -m rprt --help
|
|
68
|
+
```
|
|
69
|
+
|
|
70
|
+
`dissect.hypervisor` + `dissect.ntfs` (pulled in by `[ntfs]`) are what let ScanCrypt read
|
|
71
|
+
files out of a virtual disk. Everything else works without them.

|
+
## Quickstart
|
|
76
|
+
|
|
77
|
+
### 1. How much of a file/disk is recoverable?
|
|
78
|
+
|
|
79
|
+
```bash
|
|
80
|
+
scancrypt "SQL_DATA_D.vhdx"
|
|
81
|
+
```
|
|
82
|
+
|
|
83
|
+
```
|
|
84
|
+
size 108.5 GB
|
|
85
|
+
pattern front-only
|
|
86
|
+
recoverable 100.0%
|
|
87
|
+
encrypted 0.0002% 258 KB at the front
|
|
88
|
+
family Makop / Phobos (validated)
|
|
89
|
+
```
|
|
90
|
+
|
|
91
|
+
Add `--report triage.html` for a shareable HTML report, `--json out.json` for machine output.
|
|
92
|
+
Scans stay fast **even on huge disks** — a 322 GB VM images in seconds, because finding the
|
|
93
|
+
encryption boundary doesn't require reading the whole file.
|
|
94
|
+
|
|
95
|
+
### 2. Recover files from a virtual disk (the headline workflow)
|
|
96
|
+
|
|
97
|
+
Ransomware often encrypts a VM disk's header, so it won't mount. ScanCrypt rebuilds the disk
|
|
98
|
+
from the block map that survived and reads the files straight out — names and folders intact.
|
|
99
|
+
|
|
100
|
+
```bash
|
|
101
|
+
scancrypt "SQL_DATA_D.vhdx" --list-volume # see what's inside
|
|
102
|
+
scancrypt "SQL_DATA_D.vhdx" --recover-files ./out # copy the files out
|
|
103
|
+
```
|
|
104
|
+
|
|
105
|
+
Recover only specific files (near-instant, no full walk):
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
```bash
|
|
108
|
+
printf '/Program Files/.../DATA/production.mdf\n' > paths.txt
|
|
109
|
+
scancrypt "SQL_DATA_D.vhdx" --recover-files ./out --only-paths paths.txt
|
|
110
|
+
```
|
|
111
|
+
|
|
112
|
+
If part of the disk didn't survive, the file list says so (`… (partial)`) instead of
|
|
113
|
+
pretending it's complete.
|
|
114
|
+
|
|
115
|
+
### 3. Check a recovered SQL Server database
|
|
116
|
+
|
|
117
|
+
```bash
|
|
118
|
+
scancrypt recovered.mdf --validate-sql
|
|
119
|
+
```
|
|
120
|
+
|
|
121
|
+
```
|
|
122
|
+
253,478 valid SQL Server page(s) (90.6%) verdict: sql-data-present
|
|
123
|
+
database name: production_db
|
|
124
|
+
```
|
|
125
|
+
|
|
126
|
+
A page-level integrity check (a structural analogue to DBCC), so you know what you got back
|
|
127
|
+
before handing it to a DBA.
|
|
128
|
+
|
|
129
|
+
### 4. Triage a whole share at once
|
|
130
|
+
|
|
131
|
+
```bash
|
|
132
|
+
scancrypt /mnt/encrypted_share --report incident.html --csv incident.csv
|
|
133
|
+
```
|
|
134
|
+
|
|
135
|
+
One incident-wide figure — *"across N files totalling X TB, this fraction is recoverable for
|
|
136
|
+
free"* — with a per-file breakdown for a client or insurer.
|
|
137
|
+
|
|
138
|
+
### 5. Extract the intact bytes of a single large file
|
|
139
|
+
|
|
140
|
+
```bash
|
|
141
|
+
scancrypt victim.bin --extract recovered.bin
|
|
142
|
+
```
|
|
143
|
+
|
|
144
|
+

146
|
+
## Common options
|
|
147
|
+
|
|
148
|
+
| Flag | What it does |
|
|
149
|
+
|------|--------------|
|
|
150
|
+
| `--report FILE` | standalone HTML triage report (add `--hash` to embed a SHA-256) |
|
|
151
|
+
| `--json FILE` | full machine-readable report |
|
|
152
|
+
| `--list-volume` | list every file in a virtual disk's NTFS volume |
|
|
153
|
+
| `--recover-files DIR` | recover files from a VHDX/VHD/VMDK (rebuilds an encrypted-header disk) |
|
|
154
|
+
| `--only-paths FILE` | with `--recover-files`, restrict to listed paths |
|
|
155
|
+
| `--validate-sql` | page-level check of a recovered SQL Server MDF/NDF |
|
|
156
|
+
| `--fingerprint` | emit a privacy-safe family signature stub + pre-filled issue link (no file contents) |
|
|
157
|
+
| `--extract FILE` | write the intact byte ranges of a single file |
|
|
158
|
+
| `--carve DIR` | carve loose files from the recoverable region (needs PhotoRec) |
|
|
159
|
+
| `--boundary-only` | accept the fast front-boundary result; never do a full-disk read |
|
|
160
|
+
| `--full` | force a full block-by-block scan (precise map, reads the whole file) |
|
|
161
|
+
| `--audit-log FILE` | hash-chained, tamper-evident audit trail (+ `--case-id`, `--examiner`, `--evidence-id`) |
|
|
162
|
+
|
|
163
|
+
Scan a raw disk in place (Windows, elevated prompt): `scancrypt \\.\PhysicalDrive1 --json triage.json`
|
|
164
|
+
|
|
165
|
+
Evidence-grade run and later verification:
|
|
166
|
+
|
|
167
|
+
```bash
|
|
168
|
+
scancrypt disk.img --extract out.bin --audit-log audit.jsonl \
|
|
169
|
+
--case-id CASE-0001 --examiner "A. Analyst" --evidence-id DISK-01
|
|
170
|
+
python -c "from rprt import forensics; print(forensics.verify_log('audit.jsonl'))"
|
|
171
|
+
```
|
|
172
|
+
|
|
173
|
+
---
|
|
174
|
+
|
|
175
|
+
## How it works (four read-only stages)
|
|
176
|
+
|
|
177
|
+
1. **Map the encryption.** An entropy scan brackets where the encryption starts and stops,
|
|
178
|
+
then binary-searches down to the byte. It stays cheap on huge disks and only escalates to
|
|
179
|
+
a full read when the evidence points to a genuine second encrypted region — not to the
|
|
180
|
+
scattered high-entropy blocks (databases, compressed content) that are normal on any disk.
|
|
181
|
+
2. **Tell ciphertext from compression.** Encrypted and compressed data both look random; a
|
|
182
|
+
chi-square test plus archive-header checks separate real ciphertext from an ordinary zip,
|
|
183
|
+
image, or database blob, so recoverable data isn't written off.
|
|
184
|
+
3. **Report the number.** A recoverable percentage, an entropy map, the strain, and the
|
|
185
|
+
limits stated plainly — per file, or rolled up across a whole share.
|
|
186
|
+
4. **Recover.** Extract intact byte ranges; pull files out of a virtual disk (even one whose
|
|
187
|
+
header was destroyed); validate a recovered SQL database; carve loose files. Hashes are
|
|
188
|
+
recorded throughout.
|
|
189
|
+
|
|
190
|
+
Recovery is **family-agnostic** — a wrong or unknown family guess never affects what comes
|
|
191
|
+
back; identification only names the strain and sets expectations. Validated families
|
|
192
|
+
(matched against real samples) vs public-reporting-only ones are labelled as such.
|
|
193
|
+
|
|
194
|
+
---
|
|
195
|
+
|
|
196
|
+
## Honest limits
|
|
197
|
+
|
|
198
|
+
- Not decryption — it recovers bytes that were never encrypted; the rest stays locked.
|
|
199
|
+
- Recovery is *most, not all*; the report gives a measured figure, not a promise every file opens.
|
|
200
|
+
- Small files are usually encrypted end-to-end. The value is in big files: databases, VM disks, backups, media.
|
|
201
|
+
- Periodic/intermittent patterns recover less cleanly than front-only.
|
|
202
|
+
- No warranty, no liability. Authorised systems only.

## For developers
|
|
207
|
+
|
|
208
|
+
### Dev setup
|
|
209
|
+
|
|
210
|
+
```bash
|
|
211
|
+
python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
|
|
212
|
+
pip install -e ".[dev]"
|
|
213
|
+
pytest
|
|
214
|
+
```
|
|
215
|
+
|
|
216
|
+
Run the GUI locally (works on macOS/Linux for development): `python -m rprt.gui`
|
|
217
|
+
|
|
218
|
+
### Build the Windows app
|
|
219
|
+
|
|
220
|
+
Must run on Windows (PyInstaller doesn't cross-compile):
|
|
221
|
+
|
|
222
|
+
```powershell
|
|
223
|
+
python -m venv .venv; .venv\Scripts\activate
|
|
224
|
+
pip install -e ".[dev]"
|
|
225
|
+
python build_scripts\build_windows.py # -> dist\rprt-gui.exe (single file, no installer)
|
|
226
|
+
```
|
|
227
|
+
|
|
228
|
+
CI runs the suite on Ubuntu + Windows on every push and builds `rprt-gui.exe`; pushing a
|
|
229
|
+
`v*` tag attaches it to a GitHub release.
|
|
230
|
+
|
|
231
|
+

### Help ScanCrypt recognise a strain it doesn't name yet
|
|
249
|
+
|
|
250
|
+
Point it at one encrypted file:
|
|
251
|
+
|
|
252
|
+
```bash
|
|
253
|
+
scancrypt "somefile.newcrypt" --fingerprint
|
|
254
|
+
```
|
|
255
|
+
|
|
256
|
+
It prints a **privacy-safe** stub — extension, the family's trailing magic-candidate bytes,
|
|
257
|
+
the encryption pattern, and any nearby ransom note — as a ready-to-paste `signatures.yaml`
|
|
258
|
+
block **and** a pre-filled [GitHub issue](https://github.com/ironsightscyber/scancrypt/issues/new?template=ransomware-sample.yml)
|
|
259
|
+
link. It reads **no file contents**, so a victim can submit safely. (In the app: *Help improve
|
|
260
|
+
ScanCrypt…* after a scan.)
|
|
261
|
+
