Episode 142
We're joined this week by Chetan Raghuprasad to discuss a new botnet he recently discovered and researched. Horabot can completely hijack a target's Outlook mailbox to steal their contact list and then send even more spam to targets. It's the perfect business email compromise tool for attackers that comes with a side of banking trojan. Chetan talks to Jon about this malware family's abilities, where it came from and what the actors behind it are hoping to achieve. For more, read Chetan's full blog post.
