Re:Colonial Pipeline Paid Hackers Nearly $5M in Ransom by londons_explore on Thursday May 13, 2021 @12:23PM (#27143983)
The ransomware typically has both the encrypter and decryptor built in.

It's a simple matter of copy-pasting the key into a box, and the decryption will happen.

Over a slow network link (like a VPN to a remote NAS), I could totally imagine it taking days/weeks/months to scan every file though...
