Malvertising Used as Entry Vector for BlackCat, Actors Also Leverage SpyBoy Terminator – Malware ….>
– MalBot
Malvertising is a form of deceptive online advertising that uses third-party advertising networks to spread malicious software or engage in other malicious activities. This type of malvertising is often used as an entry vector for malicious actors who can then leverage spyware and ransomware campaigns to target victims. In this case, researchers discovered a malvertising campaign from the Blackcat actors that was used to send users to a malicious landing page. The page hosted the SpyBoy Terminator, which is a form of spyware. The malware was then used to steal sensitive personal information such as credit card numbers, passwords, and other credentials. In order to combat these types of attacks, users should ensure their systems are up-to-date with the latest security patches and that firewalls are enabled. Additionally, users should be wary of clicking on suspicious links and refrain from installing any programs or files from untrusted sources.
