Peaches Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 New ZeuS Component Targets Mobile Phones ZeuS, also known as ZBot, is an information stealing trojan used by many cyberfraudsters to capture online banking credentials and other sensitive data. It is sold on the underground market as a toolkit, which allows generating customized versions of the trojan and the command and control (C&C) application. But, as two-factor authentication systems based on one-time-use passwords sent via SMS become more widespread, it's increasingly difficult for attackers to misuse the stolen logins.The new ZeuS component tries to counter that. It comes as a malicious mobile application, which is sent to the victim's phone as a download link.
