The firm adds that, against this backdrop, advanced information-stealing malware is now being used as the main tool to enables APTs (Advanced Persistent Threats) and similar targeted attacks on enterprises.
According to Trusteer, in a typical phishing attack, cybercriminals send users a message in an attempt to lure users to perform an action that will result in malware infection, credentials theft – or both.
