CoinVault is a Windows ransomware family associated with financially motivated cybercrime activity in the mid-2010s. It is known for encrypting victim data for extortion and has also been reported as targeting Bitcoin wallet contents, indicating overlap between ransomware monetization and cryptocurrency theft. CoinVault is widely recognized as one of the notable ransomware families of its period and has been referenced in connection with law-enforcement action against its operators. High-confidence public reporting in this context supports its classification as ransomware, but does not provide reliable detail on specific infection chains, persistence mechanisms, or post-compromise tradecraft beyond its extortion and cryptocurrency-focused theft behavior.
