ShadowCrypt is a project that enhances ransomware protection by camouflaging files with system-like extensions and hiding them in system directories, utilizing Windows shortcut files for easy access. It builds upon research from the paper "Hiding in the Crowd" and offers improved functionalities such as streamlined hiding processes, versatile recovery options, and integration with the right-click context menu for user convenience. The project aims to provide a cost-effective and user-friendly solution for secure file management on Windows systems.
