New WannaCry-Mimicking SLocker Abuses QQ Services |
Texte |
Trend Micro researchers detected a new SLocker variant that mimics the GUI of the WannaCry crypto-ransomware on the Android platform. Detected as ANDROIDOS_SLOCKER.OPSCB, this new SLocker mobile ransomware variant features new routines that utilize features of the Chinese social network QQ, along with persistent screen-locking capabilities.
SLocker, an Android file-encrypting ransomware first detected and analyzed in July, was found mimicking WannaCry's GUI. Although Chinese police already arrested the ransomware's alleged creator, other SLocker operators clearly remained unfazed.
