It has been a while since I pushed out an alert like this, but this one caught my attention.  Read the CERT alert here: ​https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/alerts/TA15-286A.  In many ways, this is a typical command and control (C2) type of malware.  It turns your computer into a zombie that is at the beck and call of a remote puppet master.

What caught my attention here is that three agencies thought it important enough to issue an alert.  So in turn, I thought I should let you all know.

DON'T FALL FOR PHISHING SCAMS!  Just don't do it.  Read ​THIS HANDY ARTICLE.

Take care.
