Third, researchers suspect that this malicious application might be used to launch any commands on affected devices. ...
Although Poison Ivy has been around for quite some time now, it keeps adapting and using new attack methods and security backdoors to spread and take over vulnerable operating systems. Last year, we saw that the attackers behind this threat were using health.pro.demo30@gmail.com and wisers.data@gmail.com email addresses to expose regular users to a malicious script. Without a doubt, these email addresses have been disabled since, but the same method could still be used, which is why it is extremely important to be cautious about spam emails that are employed in phishing attacks. ...
