Fake websites pretending to be legitimate antivirus solutions are being used by threat actors to spread malware that steals sensitive information from Android and Windows devices. The malware is delivered through websites like avast-securedownload[.]com, bitdefender-app[.]com, and malwarebytes[.]pro. This malware can take control of devices, read messages and call logs, install and delete apps, track locations, and mine cryptocurrency. Cybercriminals are continuously creating new variants of stealer malware, indicating a demand in the criminal market. Additionally, an Android banking Trojan called Antidot has been discovered, disguised as a Google Play update, capable of performing various malicious actions. #soc #socanalyst #securityoperationscenter #cybersecurityanalyst #paloAlto #cybersecuritynews #malware #cyberattacks #micorsoft #vulnerability #securityawareness #Cisco #redteam #blueteam #applenews #googlecybersecurity #google  #apple #ios #osint #Android
