Head for the hills, folks! It’s not often that we cover security here, but serious times call for serious talk. There is a trojan called Trickbot, and it is one of the stealthiest malware threats in recent memory. Doesn’t help that it is going after anything and everything that crosses its path. And to make matters worse, this is a rapidly evolving threat. The latest twist in its tale is that it is targeting Windows 10 users specifically via new methods that not only evade but actually disable Windows Defender on these systems. Trickbot may be in the news for all the wrong reasons these days, but this malware is not new. It has been causing trouble since 2016. Since then, this banking trojan is estimated to have compromised no less than 250 million email accounts. So much so that many in the cybersecurity world consider Trickbot as the topmost threat targeting the computing landscape. This malware is designed with a laser focus on stealing the private data of users. Whether it be harvesting emails or stealing logins and passwords, hijacking web browsers or altering displayed websites, stealing banking details or transferring money out of crypto wallets, Trickbot is doing it all. The developers behind Trickbot have updated this malware numerous times over the years, adding advanced new traits every time. One of these features is screen locking, where the more recent versions of Trickbot are capable of locking the computer screens of the victims. What’s even worse, and an extremely dangerous addition is the capability of hijacking several different kinds of applications and then stealing credentials, recording information relating to web browsing, as well as system details itself like the CPU, operating system and running processes.
