Compiles a json dataset containing properties to aid in the detection and mitigation of over 1000 variants of ransomware using public sources.

pip install -r requirements.txt

python ./UpdateJsonDataset/update_json.py

The latest version of the Ransomware Summary spreadsheet will then be downloaded and processed into a local json output which will be found in the core folder of your local repository along with a copy of the latest version of the spreadsheet. To change the source and destinations for local files edit the constants found in the header of the 'update_json.py' file.

JSON dataset work is based upon the Ransomware Summary public spreadsheet that is managed by the many efforts of Mosh (@nyxbone) and @cyb3rops and can be found at: http://goo.gl/b9R8DE. Spreadsheet data remains the intellectual property of Mosh and is taken 'as-is' and processed into a more programming friendly JSON output to allow its use in various shell or programming operations. Spreadsheet is cloned within this repository for redundancy purposes.
