Present day malware is very sophisticated and much different than a decade ago. Malware is no longer a single executable file which executes on the victim's computer and runs as a process. There are multiple stages involved from a typical malware infection to completion of its objectives. Typically, infection starts with a victim clicking on a link in a spam email. It then leads to a binary executable downloaded and executed on the victim's computer. This is however, just the tip of the iceberg, the executed binary usually downloads further binaries from internet and creates several processes, registry keys and injects into legitimate process’s memory. After a series of steps, the money is transferred from victim's bank account to a bank account controlled by criminals.
This talk will explain the events from spam email to money transfer step by step to help the audience understand malware and protect themselves better.
