Encrypted files are renam This is a safe way to simulate encryption since it is easy to "decrypt" your files. You can simply perform a bit flip on the files again and rename them to remove the appended `.m0nk3y` extension. -This is sufficient to mock a ransomware attack on your network as your files are left unusuable and are renamed with a different extension, similar to the way that many ransomwares act.
