Technical News Office,There is a hacker group in Pakistan, whose name is Transparent Tribe or APT36. These hackers are trying to steal information about people in India. They created a new malware, called ElizaRAT. This malware enters the computer and steals information secretly. Cybersecurity company Check Point is keeping an eye on this malware. Since September 2023, this malware has been constantly evolving and has become even more dangerous.
What is ElizaRAT?
ElizaRAT is a kind of dangerous software. This software gets into your computer and you don’t even know it. Hackers trick you and install this software on your computer. They send you a link, which is a link to a file. You think this file is safe, but in reality it is dangerous software. When you click on this link, this software will be loaded on your computer and hackers can control your computer remotely.
How does ElizaRAT work?
ElizaRAT can do a lot of dirty things after entering your computer. It sees everything that happens on your computer and sends this information to hackers. This program also checks whether your computer is in India or not. If your computer is in India, this program becomes even more active. This clearly shows that these hackers are particularly targeting Indian computers. After breaking into your computer, Transparent Tribe hackers use applications like Google, Telegram and Slack. These applications are very common, so security teams do not suspect them. Hackers steal information from your computer through these applications and send it to themselves. This way, security teams don’t realize anything is wrong.
How can we escape?
To avoid dangerous software like ElizaRate, a company named Check Point has created security software. This software checks each file to see if it is dangerous. This software runs the file in an isolated environment and sees if the file does anything wrong. If there is any threat in the file, this software blocks it and gives you a secure file. A hacker group called Transparent Tribe uses ElizaRat to keep an eye on India. These hackers are constantly changing their methods, which is why cybersecurity experts are also constantly looking for new ways to keep our computers safe.
