Verdict:	Malicious activity
Threats:	DarkVision RAT is a low-cost, modular Remote Access Trojan that gives attackers remote control of infected Windows hosts. Initially observed around 2020 and sold in underground marketplaces, DarkVision has become notable for its full feature set (keylogging, screen capture, file theft, remote command execution and plugin support) and for being distributed via multi-stage loaders in recent campaigns. Remote access trojans (RATs) are a type of malware that enables attackers to establish complete to partial control over infected computers. Such malicious programs often have a modular design, offering a wide range of functionalities for conducting illicit activities on compromised systems. Some of the most common features of RATs include access to the users’ data, webcam, and keystrokes. This malware is often distributed through phishing emails and links. Malware Trends Tracker >>>
