Cryptowall 4 Prevention

$

With Cryptowall 4 doing the rounds I thought I'd start a new discussion thread.

I've searched through Spiceworks community but most discussions are based on older versions of Cryptowall from 2014.

Specifically I wanted to know:

  • Is there a way to have outlook block Cryptowall payloads disguised as word docs?
  • Will Cryptowall execute even if the user does not have local admin privileges?
  • Aside from downloading CryptoPrevention from FoolishIT.com what can be done to harden a machine to prevent it from executing?

Thanks in advance!
