Your Screen Resolution Can Stop Malware: Here’s How That Works
#1
Quote:Trickbot has been a notorious, prevalent, and highly dangerous malware strain ever since it burst onto the threat radar in 2016. The successor to Dyer, a banking Trojan of some repute, Trickbot has relentlessly evolved courtesy of it being modular in nature. Most often linked with the Emotet spamming distribution system, Trickbot is the most prolific malware to have benefitted from COVID-19 hacker campaigns. 
A successful infection can lead to credential theft, ransomware attacks, and the installation of further remote access malware threats. It can even run from memory to ensure no trace of itself is left behind on an infected system. Yet despite the undoubted advanced nature of Trickbot, it's this ability to do all it can to make detection harder that reveals a weakness: low screen resolution is kryptonite to this hacker malware favorite.
