Is there any known solution to decrypt Malloxx (Targetcompany) ransomware encrypted data?
Avast has released free decrypter ,but it does not work with this variant.

There are plenty sql repair utilities with ambiguous results most of the time. Stellar, Systools and Repair Toolbox being some of them.
You can try all of them in demo and see which gives you best results.

Is it possible to get full or partial SQL data after repairs ? Has anyone done this ?I have a pending case too. What will be charges for the same.
If customer agrees I am ready to pay. I have tried all above utilities (demo mode) but outcome of the same is not known though some tables are shown in preview.
Any help appreciated

As a general rule, after repairing your database, it will attach to the SQL server, however there will be data missing. The amount of missing data will be dependant on the corruption of the file due to encryption.
In some cases, where we get lucky, we were able to manually repair the file and get almost perfect result, but that was due to poor encryption of the ransomware, where it encrypted areas that weren't really containing user data, only headers and generic stuff.
In most of the cases with the auto repair tools, the result is poor because critical tables will be missing.

Thank you so much norhwind , before purchasing expensive tool I have got clear idea about outcome which depends upon level of coruption.
I think if customer approves costing and his software vendor for manual reconstruction & repairs then I will send file to developers .They might be able to repair it far better than retail tool.
Thanks a lot
