FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What should I do after allowing a scammer remote access?
Disconnect the affected computer from the internet and stop communicating with the caller. From a trusted device, secure important accounts and contact your bank if payment or financial information was shared. We can check remote-access tools and suspicious software.
Are pop-up virus warnings always real?
No. A browser warning demanding you call a phone number or pay immediately may be a support scam. Do not call the number, download its software or share credentials. Describe what happened when you contact us.
Can encrypted ransomware files always be recovered?
No. Recovery depends on backups, the ransomware and whether a trusted decryptor exists. Disconnect affected systems to limit spread and preserve evidence. Do not assume that removing malware restores encrypted files.
Should I change passwords after an infection?
If credentials may have been exposed, change important passwords from a clean device, revoke suspicious sessions and enable MFA. Start with email and financial accounts. Changing passwords on the infected machine can expose the new passwords too.
Can malware removal be performed remotely?
Sometimes, if a trusted connection can be established safely. Serious compromise, unstable systems or suspected hardware issues may need on-site work. The appropriate method depends on the symptoms and risks.
How can I reduce repeat infections?
Keep supported software updated, use layered protection, maintain tested backups and be cautious with unexpected downloads and messages. No security product guarantees prevention. We can review protections and habits suited to your devices.
