Threats:

Socks5systemz is a botnet that utilizes its infection capabilities to establish a network of compromised devices. These devices are then used to forward malicious traffic. The criminals behind this malware sell access to the infected endpoints to other threat actors. Socks5systemz maintains control over thousands of devices and communicates with them using specific commands.
