McAfee deckt Ransomware-Trend auf, bei dem Profile von Merkel, Trump & Obama genutzt werden

(PresseBox) (Unterschleißheim, )
Das Advanced Threat Research-Team von McAfee hat heute eine neue Untersuchung veröffentlicht, die einen zunehmenden Trend bei Ransomware-Entwicklern aufdecken. Immer mehr Ransomware-Exploits nutzen die Profile von großen Politikern wie Angela Merkel, Donald Trump und neuerdings Barack Obama aus, um Ransomware auf den Computern der Opfer zu installieren.

Während die McAfee-Untersuchungen einen deutlichen Anstieg politisch motivierter Ransomware, oder vielmehr von Ransomware, die die Profile von Politikern nutzt, zeigt, gibt es keine signifikanten Hinweise darauf, dass sie vom selben Bedrohungsakteur stammen. Allerdings stimmen die Quellcodes der Trump- und Merkel-Ransomware zu 46 Prozent überein, was auf eine mögliche Verbindung zwischen den Bedrohungsakteuren hindeutet.
