How secure is your computer from malware attacks? If you do not protect your computer with AntiMalware program, it's better now to protect your confidential data maintained.
Malware or malicious software is malicious programs designed to damage, steal important information, through a system, or other bad behavior in cyberspace. Malware usually familiar with the world of hacking.
But, in German actually used by the government. The goal is to conduct surveillance. The practice was revealed in the reports Chaos Computer Club, on October 8, 2011.
Malware used by the German government called the Bundes Trojaner or Federal Trojan. Not known since when Bundes Trojaner used.
This practice violates the constitution, which the German court has banned the use of malware to spy on people. The ban was imposed since February 27, 2008.
Apparently not only in Germany malware used to spy on the activities of its citizens. Government of Egypt and France did the same. The Egyptian government using Trojan FinFisher. As in France using Spyware.
So what kind of malware that is used by the German government? malware researchers in the laboratory ESET explained that detection of the malware known as Win32/R2D2.A.
The Trojan displays a tapper and take screen shots and record sound. Capability has the potential to widen further from the function Wiretapping or permitted the court / legal tapping.
Some applications that were targeted spying is Skype, MSN Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger, and X-Lite, an application of voice over Internet protocol.
Furthermore, the malware also has the potential to create a backdoor or loophole in the infected computer. As a result, the trojan can send the full information available to the controller computer.
Bundes Trojaner tracked the emergence of the material documents leaked by the Wikileaks website. In the document it is mentioned that DigiTask, a company based in Bavaria, was once asked to create software that will be used to scan Skype.
However DigiTask denied that information. Yudhi Kukuh, Technical Consultant PT. Prosperita-ESET Indonesia, said the origin of the malware is not important. "If the malicious code contained in it, there is no reason for antimalware to not detect it."He added that this is a major strength of behavior analysis methods and heuristics are used ESET.
Bundes Trojaner actually a sound recorder software. The software is able to record conversations in Skype which is done through a computer soundcard before the conversation is encrypted by Skype and "0zapftis".
ESET managed to detect the presence Bundestrojaner Win32/R2D2.A named. The name comes from the text string C3PO-R2D2-POE, which is similar to the name of the robot in the "Star Wars" Movie Film. *** [ESET | FIRMAN | KORAN TEMPO 3693]
