Code for creating dangerous trojans is being sold

PandaLabs has just issued a warning about a digital cybercrime network that currently sells the source code for the Trj / Briz.A trojan for $ 990 per copy.

PandaLabs said that Trj / Briz.A is a very dangerous form of trojan because it is able to collect all data of online banking and financial transactions as well as other data from websites. PandaLabs also affirmed that Trj / Briz.A is the perfect 'work' of some social black 'business' that specializes in making money online.

From this source code, high-skilled hackers can produce many other dangerous trojan variants that can infiltrate every computer and silently send to its owner all data such as IP addresses, username, password etc. These sensitive data will allow hackers to completely hijack infected computers remotely.

The file containing Trj / Briz.A trojan is often called ' iexplore.exe ', making the user mistakenly believe that this is a new, relevant file or used to activate Internet Explorer. By activating this file, it will immediately download other malicious files and immediately disable the Windows Security Center and Shared Internet Access features . It then collects data of e-mail managers such as Outlook , Eudora , The Bat . to send to the attacker. In addition, it also completely prevents access to today's popular security websites. Ordinary users hardly have the ability to delete it from the computer.

Luis Corrons, PandaLabs' president, said that the era of hackers creating malicious code for the purpose of playing or claiming to have completely gone. Other types of malicious codes like trojan Trj / Briz.A are completely made according to orders completely for the purpose of financial fraud attack. When 'payback' and 'profit' the owner of these malicious codes will sell to other scam gangs who need to use it to get 'reinvested' money into the new generation of malicious code more dangerous.
