Google Play Store Google के एंड्रॉइड ऑपरेटिंग सिस्टम को चलाने वाले उपयोगकर्ताओं के लिए ऐप्स और गेम को इंस्टॉल करने का सबसे सुरक्षित तरीका है, धन्यवाद कंपनी के एंटी-मालवेयर प्रोटेक्शन के लिए जो स्टोर पर अपलोड किए गए ऐप्स को स्कैन करते हैं।  कंपनी गूगल प्ले प्रोटेक्ट, मालवेयर के लिए स्कैन करने का उपकरण भी उपलब्ध कराती है, जिसमें प्ले स्टोर के बाहर स्थापित ऐप भी शामिल हैं।

हालाँकि, Google की सुरक्षा के बावजूद, खतरनाक ऐप्स कभी-कभी उपयोगकर्ताओं के डिवाइसों के माध्यम से खिसकने और संक्रमित होने का प्रबंधन करते हैं, जैसे कि नए Flubot मैलवेयर, जो उपयोगकर्ताओं के पासवर्डों को लोकप्रिय ऐप के रूप में संदेश भेजकर चुराते हैं।  बीबीसी द्वारा वोडाफोन यूके के बाद वायरस की उपस्थिति की सूचना दी गई, थ्री और ईई ने अपने उपयोगकर्ताओं को इसके अस्तित्व के प्रति सचेत किया।

टेक्स्ट संदेश घोटाला एसएमएस के माध्यम से फैलता है और सोशल इंजीनियरिंग पर निर्भर करता है, जो पैकेज डिलीवरी कंपनी के संदेश के रूप में प्रच्छन्न है और उपयोगकर्ताओं को अपनी डिलीवरी को ट्रैक करने के लिए एक ऐप इंस्टॉल करने के लिए कह रहा है।  चूंकि ऐप Google Play Store पर उपलब्ध नहीं है, इसलिए लिंक की गई APK (पैकेज इंस्टॉलर) फ़ाइल को मैन्युअल रूप से डाउनलोड और इंस्टॉल किया जाना चाहिए, कुछ ऐसा जो औसत से बचना चाहिए अगर वे सुरक्षा निहितार्थ को नहीं समझते हैं या एप्लिकेशन के स्रो�� पर भरोसा नहीं करते हैं।

ब्रिटेन के राष्ट्रीय साइबर सुरक्षा केंद्र (NCSC) के अनुसार, जो उपयोगकर्ता मैलवेयर से संक्रमित हैं, उन्हें अपने डेटा की सुरक्षा के लिए उचित कदम उठाने होंगे।  हालांकि यह अभी भी स्पष्ट नहीं है कि पासवर्ड और क्रेडेंशियल्स सहित उपयोगकर्ता जानकारी को कैसे आसानी से निकाला जा सकता है, यह सवाल उठाता है कि ऐप को अनइंस्टॉल करने के लिए Google प्ले प्रोटेक्ट कैसे मालवेयर को ध्वजांकित करता है और उपयोगकर्ताओं को संकेत देता है।

Druk op politie was ook in 2022 hoog - samenleving verhardt

De druk op de politie bleef het afgelopen jaar groot. Zo steeg het totaal aantal misdrijven met 7% ten opzichte van 2021. Er werden in 2022 wel meer misdrijven opgelost (32%). Naast de stijging van het aantal misdrijven waren er klimaat- en stikstofprotesten, asielprotesten en geweld van hooligans. Regelmatig verhardden de protesten en zag de politie zich genoodzaakt om te begrenzen. Tijdens de jaarlijkse bijeenkomst met de pers keken regioburgemeester Hubert Bruls, hoofdofficier van justitie Marthyne Kunst en plaatsvervangend politiechef Gert Veurink terug op het jaar 2022. Corona De afgelopen jaren zagen we het criminaliteitsbeeld ten gevolge van corona veranderen. In die periode zagen we een dalende lijn van de traditionele criminaliteit zoals woninginbraken, diefstallen en overvallen mede omdat er meer thuis werd geleefd, gewinkeld en gewerkt. Cybercrime, waar we zowel het hacken van computers als bijvoorbeeld online fraude of sextortion onder scharen, nam tijdens coronatijd juist enorm toe. Ook werd er tijdens de coronaperiode vaker melding gemaakt van overlast door jeugd. Coronabeperkingen opgeheven In 2022, het jaar waarin de coronabeperkingen werden opgeheven, zien we dat deze effecten van corona beginnen te verdwijnen. Zo stegen zowel de woninginbraken (4% t.o.v. 2021) als de straatroven (5% t.o.v. 2021) het afgelopen jaar voor het eerst weer licht. Wel is dit aantal nog steeds aanzienlijk lager dan voor de coronaperiode. Het aantal overvallen daalde met 15% ten opzichte van 2021. In 2022 daalde het aantal meldingen overlast door jeugd flink, dit ging van 23.668 in 2021 naar 16.253. Het aantal cybercrimedelicten liet voor het eerst een lichte daling zien. Wel is er nog steeds een stijgende lijn te zien ten opzichte van voor corona. Toename verkeersongevallen letsel We zien de afgelopen jaren een continue stijging van het aantal verkeersongevallen met letsel. In 2022 steeg dit weer met 21%. Hierbij waren zeker 148 dodelijke slachtoffers te betreuren (toename van 25% t.o.v. 2021). Ook het geweld tegen politieambtenaren nam dit jaar toe naar bijna 3000 incidenten (ruim 2700 in 2021). Een andere flinke stijger is diefstal van fietsen en brom/snorfietsen. Hier is sprake van een stijging met 40% in vergelijking tot 2021. Cybercriminelen spelen in op actualiteit Binnen cybercrime zien we verschillende fenomenen die regelmatig veranderen, waarbij criminelen slim inspelen op de actualiteit zoals het terugvragen van de energiecompensatie. Zowel jongeren als ouderen zijn slachtoffer. De impact op slachtoffers is vaak groot. De aanpak van cybercrime is een speerpunt voor politie en Openbaar Ministerie (OM). Zorgelijk is het gegeven dat de gemiddelde leeftijd van verdachten daalt. Het OM ziet binnen de groep verdachten van cybercrime dat het percentage jongeren tot 23 jaar tussen 2018 en 2021 gestegen is van 25 procent naar 57 procent. Daar waar mogelijk probeert het OM de schade te verhalen. Het cybercrime team van de politie boekte het afgelopen jaar een aantal mooie successen. Zo slaagde het team er in juni in de verspreiding van schadelijke software (Flubot) te stoppen. Deze software verspreidde zich razendsnel via een valse sms van bekende pakketbezorgdiensten. Met de malware konden criminelen toegang krijgen tot de gegevens van het slachtoffer. Eenmaal in een telefoon, werden de contactpersonen gebruikt om het virus verder te verspreiden. Er waren al 10.000 slachtoffers gemaakt toen de software onschadelijk werd gemaakt. In oktober had het team een belangrijk aandeel in een actie tegen de ransomware-groep Deadbolt. Met ransomware houden criminelen computerbestanden in gijzeling. Slachtoffers moeten losgeld betalen om weer toegang tot hun bestanden te krijgen. Het lukte de politie tijdens een gerichte actie meer dan 150 decryptiesleutels van deze ransomware-groep te bemachtigen door een slimmigheid met bitcoinbetalingen. Met deze sleutels konden bestanden, zoals dierbare foto’s of administratie, weer ontgrendeld worden, zonder dat het de slachtoffers geld kostte. Bestrijden ondermijning prioriteit Ook in 2022 was het effect van ondermijnende georganiseerde criminaliteit zichtbaar in de eenheid. Zo werden er 14 drugslabs aangetroffen (in 2021 waren dit er 13) op verschillende plekken in de eenheid. De labs werden vooral in het zuidelijke deel van de eenheid Oost-Nederland aangetroffen maar ook het zuidoostelijke deel van Twente valt op. De aanleiding van het aantreffen van labs is divers en komt zowel uit opsporingsonderzoeken, meldingen van burgers als veiligheidsincidenten. Het aantal geconstateerde drugsdumpingen nam iets af van 36 in 2021 naar 32 in 2022. Impactvol was verder ondermeer de liquidatie van twee mannen op klaarlichte dag midden in een vol restaurant in Zwolle in maart 2022. Deze zware georganiseerde criminaliteit tast onze democratische rechtsstaat aan en de aanpak heeft daarom ook in 2023 prioriteit. Dit doen we in nauwe samenwerking en verbinding met publieke- en private partners. Snel gedagvaard Maatschappelijke onrust, met verschillende geplande en ongeplande protestacties tot gevolg, en ook voetbalwedstrijden, legden in 2022 een fors beslag op de capaciteit van de eenheid Oost-Nederland. De parate eenheden van de eenheid kwamen zo’n 183 keer in actie waarbij gemiddeld ongeveer 31 mensen werden ingezet. Het lukte het OM verdachten die werden aangehouden tijdens de protesten tegen het stikstofbeleid, snel voor de rechter te brengen. In totaal ging het in 2022 om 33 verdachten, verspreid over elf zittingen. Ook vandaag, vrijdag 13 januari, staan nog drie verdachten terecht voor strafbare feiten tijdens een protest op 1 december jongstleden in Zwolle. Het recht op demonstreren is een groot goed, maar als er sprake is van strafbare feiten en/of gevaar voor anderen, gaat het OM over tot vervolging. Capaciteitstekort blijft beperkt Een jaar geleden waarschuwde de driehoek voor capaciteitstekorten in de basisteams die enkele jaren zouden aanhouden. In 2022 blijken de tekorten enigszins mee te zijn gevallen. Werd vorig jaar nog rekening gehouden met scenario’s waarin in de basisteams 4 tot 6 procent onderbezetting zou ontstaan, in 2022 blijkt dat de tekorten beperkt bleven tot zo’n 2%. Er zijn in 2022 een kleine 200 politiemensen de basisteams ingestroomd. Verder krijgt de eenheid Oost-Nederland vanuit het regeerakkoord en de motie Hermans de komende jaren structureel 110 nieuwe politiemensen erbij. Dit betekent nog niet dat de teams direct verlichting voelen. Zo moeten nieuwe politiemedewerkers worden opgeleid en zal de begeleiding van nieuwe instromers de komende tijd de nodige inspanning vragen. Ook worden er nog steeds collega’s landelijk ingezet voor bewaken en beveiligen. De krapte was overigens ook voelbaar in de opsporing en de hele strafrechtketen. In het afgelopen jaar is gewerkt aan versterking en dat wordt ook het komend jaar doorgezet. De kracht van de eenheid Oost-Nederland is de gewoonte om elkaar te helpen om het werk zo goed mogelijk te verdelen. De driehoek signaleert tot slot dat de politie haar werk doet in een samenleving waarin sterk uitgesproken meningen veel aandacht krijgen en gezag soms ter discussie lijkt te staan. Daarom is het, nu meer dan ooit, van belang de verbinding met alle groepen in de samenleving verder te versterken en zo te blijven bouwen aan het vertrouwen in de politie. Voor de politie is iedereen gelijkwaardig. Zij streeft ernaar dat vrijheid en veiligheid in balans zijn. Ook in 2023 wil de politie in Oost-Nederland eraan bijdragen dat alle inwoners prettig met elkaar kunnen samenleven. Bron: OM Read the full article

Whether this malware makes it to North America in any significant number or not, the functionality and the devastation already caused in Europe should heighten the call to action for all Android users – to watch out for suspicious messages and to install security software in order to prevent such extremely malicious apps from ever getting on their devices.Netflix is available on many devices. In the unfortunate scenario that the malware was installed on a device and banking or other activity has taken place since the installation took place, then contact the organizations concerned immediately to block access and where necessary change passwords, remembering to make them unique and strong. If you receive an unknown or unexpected SMS message with a clickable link, refrain from clicking the link and instead remove the message.

HOW TO STOP GOOGLE DOWNLOAD ENGLISH UPDATE HOW TO

My colleague, Lukas Stefanko, has produced a short video with helpful instructions on how to remove this and any other malicious app: How to remove FluBotĪ compromised device may need to have the malware removed manually. Also, due to the extensive permissions granted, the threat actor is able to block the installation of many third-party antimalware solutions. The malicious app also disables Google Play Protect to avoid detection by the operating system’s built-in security. SMS messages and notifications from telecom carriers can be intercepted, browser pages can be opened, and overlays to capture credentials can be displayed. The contact list is exfiltrated from the device and sent to servers under the control of the bad actor, providing them with additional personal information and enabling them to unleash further attacks on other potential victims. Once installed and granted the requested permissions, FluBot unleashes a plethora of functionality, including SMS spamming, the theft of credit card numbers and banking credentials, and spyware. An example of the SMS message (in German) and the subsequent prompt to install the app can be seen below: The call to action of the message is for the user to click a link in order to download and install an app that has the same familiar branding as the SMS message but is actually malicious and has the FluBot malware embedded within it. The victim first receives an SMS message that impersonates a popular delivery logistics brand, such as FedEx, DHL, and Correos (in Spain). To avoid removal, the attacker implements mechanisms to stop the built-in protection offered by the Android OS and stops many third-party security software packages from being installed, an action many users would take to remove malicious software. This includes the potential to steal credit card numbers and access credentials to online banking accounts. If a victim is lured by the attacker into the malicious campaign, their entire Android device becomes accessible to the scammer. FluBot and TeaBot are detected by ESET products as variants of the Android/TrojanDropper.Agent family. In recent days, cybercriminals have begun to target Europeans with TeaBot (also known as Anatsa or Toddler), an Android malware family that uses exactly the same technique as FluBot to spread and to lure users into giving up their sensitive data. It’s also worth noting that this advice will help you stay safe from other Android malware strains. Here’s why you should be vigilant, how FluBot operates, and how you can remove this Android nasty from your device.

June 2022: The Most Wanted Malware: MaliBot, New Banking, and Poses Danger to Users of Mobile Banking

The latest Global Threat Index June 2022 shows that MaliBot, a new Android banking malware, is now third in the list of most dangerous mobile malwares. It emerged after the takedown FluBot at May's end.

MaliBot pretends to be cryptocurrency mining apps under different names. It targets mobile banking users in order to steal financial data. MaliBot is similar to FluBot and uses phishing SMS messages (smishing), to lure victims to click on malicious links that will redirect them to a fake application.

Emotet, the most widespread malware overall, remains the most popular malware this month. Snake Keylogger is now in third place after an increase in activity from last month's eighth position. Snake Keylogger's primary function is to track keystrokes of users and send collected data to threat agents. Snake Keylogger was first delivered to us via PDF files in May. However, it has now been distributed through email attachments with Word attachments that are tagged as requests of quotations. Researchers also reported on a new variant of Emotet that targets Chrome browser users and has credit card theft capabilities.

Although it is always a good thing to see law enforcement succeed in taking down cybercrime groups and malwares such as FluBot, it wasn't long before a new mobile malware took its place. Cybercriminals know the importance of mobile devices in people's lives and they are constantly adapting their strategies to meet this reality. Mobile malware poses a serious threat to both enterprise and personal security. A robust mobile threat prevention solution is essential.

We also revealed this month that "Apache Log4j remote code execution" is the most exploited vulnerability. It affects 43% of all organizations globally. Web Server Exposed Git Repository information disclosure has a 42.3% global impact. With a global impact at 42.1%, "Web Servers Malicious URL Directory Traversal” is third.

Top Malware Family

*The arrows indicate the change in rank relative to the previous month.

Emotet continues to be the most widely used malware, with 14% global impact. Formbook and Snake Keylogger each have 4.4% impact on organizations around the world.

Emotet     Emotet is a modular, advanced and self-propagating Trojan. Emotet was     originally used to distribute banking Trojans, but it is now used to     distribute other malware and malicious campaigns. Emotet uses     multiple methods to maintain persistence and evade detection. It can     also be spread via phishing spam email attachments and links.

– Formbook - Formbook is an Infostealer     that targets the Windows OS. It was first discovered in 2016. For its     strong evasion techniques, low price and high market appeal, it is called     Malware-as-a-Service or MaaS (Malware-as-a-Service) in underground hacking     forums. FormBook collects credentials from different web browsers,     logs keystrokes, monitors and logs them, and can then download and execute     files according its C&C.

Snake     Keylogger - Snake is a modular .NET keylogger and credential stealer first     spotted in late November 2020. It records keystrokes of users and     sends the collected data to threat actors. The malware is extremely     persistent and evasive, and can steal sensitive information from users.

Agent     Tesla - Agent Tesla is an advanced RAT functioning as a keylogger and     information stealer, which is capable of monitoring and collecting the     victim's keyboard input, system keyboard, taking screenshots, and     exfiltrating credentials to a variety of software installed on a victim's     machine (including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and the Microsoft     Outlook email client).

XMRig -     XMRig is open-source CPU mining software used to mine the Monero     cryptocurrency. This open-source software is often used by threat     actors to illegally mine victims' computers.

Remcos -     Remcos is a RAT that first appeared in the wild in 2016. Remcos     spreads itself via malicious Microsoft Office documents that are attached     to SPAM email. It is designed to bypass Microsoft Windows UAC security to     execute malware with high-level privileges.

Phorpiex -     Phorpiex is a botnet (aka Trik) and has been since 2010. It     controlled over a million infected hosts at its peak. It is     well-known for spreading other malware families via spam attacks, as well     as fueling large spam and sextortion operations.

Ramnit -     Ramnit is a modular banking Trojan first discovered in 2010. Ramnit     uses web session information to steal victim account credentials. This     includes corporate and social network accounts as well as bank     accounts. To contact the C&C server, and to download additional     modules, the Trojan uses both hardcoded domains and domains generated     using a DGA (Domain Generation Algorithm).

Glupteba -     Glupteba is a backdoor which gradually matured into a botnet. It had     a C&C address updating mechanism via public Bitcoin lists, a browser     stealer capability, and a router exploiter by 2019.

NJRat -     NJRat is a remote accesses Trojan, used both by Crimeware and State     attackers. The Trojan was first discovered in 2012 and can capture     keystrokes, view the victim's desktop, steal credentials from browsers,     download and upload files, perform file manipulations and process     them. NJRat spreads via phishing attacks, drive-by downloads and     other means. It also has the ability to infect victims through infected     USB keys and networked drives with the help of Command & Control     software.

Police bust ‘FluBot’ cell phone scam

A mobile phone scam dubbed FluBot has been busted by the police of 11 countries that spread around the world via fake text messages, Dutch and EU police said.

Dutch cybercops led an operation in May targeting the malware, which infects Android phones using texts which pretend to be from a parcel firm or which say a person has a voicemail waiting.

Hackers would then steal bank details from infected phones, which automatically sent messages to other mobiles in the user’s contact list, passing on the scam like a flu virus.

 “To date, we have disconnected ten thousand victims from the FluBot network and prevented over 6.5 million spam text messages,” Dutch police said in a statement.

The EU’s police agency Europol said FluBot was among “the fastest-spreading mobile malware to date” and was “able to spread like wildfire due to its ability to access an infected smartphone’s contacts.” Police had made the malware “inactive” but are still hunting the culprits, it said.

 “This FluBot infrastructure is now under the control of law enforcement, putting a stop to the destructive spiral,” Europol said.

The countries involved in carrying out the investigation were Australia, the United States, Belgium, Finland, Hungary, Ireland, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the Netherlands, coordinated by Europol’s cybercrime centre.

FluBot became one of the world’s most notorious cyberscams after it first emerged in December 2020, “wreaking havoc” around the world, Europol said.

The agency said the bug had compromised a “huge number of devices worldwide”, especially in Europe and the United States, with “major incidents” in Spain and Finland. Australian media said last year that FluBot was spreading “like a tsunami” with some users being bombarded by texts.
