Abstract
Techniques for countering ransomware are provided in which key material can be captured, for example, by a telemetry component. The key material is created or otherwise used by a process executing on a monitored computing device and characterizes entropy used by ransomware to generate a ransomware encryption key. This captured key material is used to reconstruct the ransomware encryption key. This key, in turn, is used to decrypt ransomware-encrypted files.
