BitCrypt at first is a legal program which “allows the user to store any text message in an encrypted form which is hidden within user specified image. The text is encrypted with one of the strongest encryption algorithms in order to strengthen the level of security.” But recently, we have received complaints from the users.
BitCrypt is a legit program, but recently it may be hacked and has been taken advantage by the cyber criminals. It is now a ransomware created by the hackers to collect money. Users complain that BitCrypt encrypts their file without their permission. And it gives the instruction to ask users to pay money to get the decryption key. This infection may come into your computer along with some free software, files and drivers. You may also get infect by opening spam emails, sharing corrupt, or clicking to unsafe web sites, and so on.
