Share This Post

Morphisec, through its breach prevention with Moving Target Defense technology, has identified a new, sophisticated campaign delivery which has been successfully evading the radar of many security vendors. Through a simple email phishing tactic with an html attachment, threat attackers are delivering AsyncRAT (a remote access trojan) designed to remotely monitor and control its infected computers through a secure, encrypted connection. This campaign has been in effect for a period of 4 to 5 months, with the lowest detection rates as presented through VirusTotal.

Morphisec backtraced the campaign to September 12, 2021. This campaign continued its evolution while delivering formally known crypter as a service, such as HCrypt and Alosh. This blog post explains the campaign delivery vector in detail.
