Once the malware infects the host machine, it collects essential information to create a unique identifier, which helps it avoid detection. The malware empowers the attacker to surveil and harvest sensitive data from the target’s computer, as well as take full control of the victim’s machine. The malware sends the captured data automatically to the command and control server every two minutes and 10 hours.
Kaspersky’s Global Research and Analysis Team (GReAT) has indeed all members of the cybersecurity community to exchange knowledge about the latest findings to ensure the cyber safety of businesses.
To protect yourself from threats like DinodasRAT, Kaspersky experts recommend conducting regular security audits and assessments to identify any weaknesses or gaps in your organization’s security posture. They also encourage employees to remain vigilant and report any suspicious emails, links, or activities to the IT or security team immediately.
Additionally, investing in comprehensive security solutions, such as Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business, can protect against the latest security threats. If employees need to access company resources remotely, ensure that remote access methods, such as virtual private networks (VPNs) or secure remote desktop protocols, are properly configured and secured to prevent unauthorized access.
