"Infostealer Incidents More Than Doubled in Q1 2023"

In the first quarter of 2023, the number of incidents involving infostealer malware more than doubled compared to last year, mainly targeting Windows, Linux, and macOS. According to a recent study by Uptycs, most of the perpetrators behind infostealer malware use Telegram as a platform for command-and-control (C2) and data exfiltration. Infostealer malware targets victims by stealing passwords, login credentials, and other sensitive information. Following the collection of personal information, the stealer sends it to the malicious actor's C2 system. Uptycs' examination of the dark web revealed that RedLine has the largest market share, followed by Raccoon and the RecordBreaker stealer. Newcomer Meta, Vidar, Cryptbot, and AZORult are other widely-used infostealers. This article continues to discuss key findings from Uptycs' latest report on infostealers.
