| Verdict: | Malicious activity |
| Threats: | Pikabot is a trojan malware with a focus on loader capabilities. Pikabot is also used for other activities, such as executing commands on the infected system. The earlier versions of the malware made use of extensive code obfuscation to evade detection. Upon infection, it collects system information and sends it to command-and-control servers. |
