Feedly:TrendLabs Security Intelligence Blog. Threat Actors Behind “Shrouded Crossbow” Create BIFROSE for UNIX
from TrendLabs Security Intelligence Blog
We recently came across a variant of the BIFROSE malware that has been rewritten for UNIX and UNIX-like systems. This is the latest tool developed by attackers behind operation Shrouded Crossbow, which have produced other BIFROSE variants such as KIVARS and KIVARS x64. UNIX-based operating systems are widely used in servers, workstations, and even mobile devices. With a lot of highly confidential data found in these servers and devices, a UNIX version of BIFROSE can certainly be classified as a threat.
