In 2023, we will observe a great demand for malware loaders on the darknet: instead of developing their own malicious samples, attackers will opt for ready-made services with enhanced detection avoidance.
As the financial threat landscape has been evolving dramatically over the past few years, Kaspersky experts believe it is no longer sufficient to look at the threats to traditional financial institutions, but that it is better to assess financial threats as a whole. The cybercrime market has been developing extensively, with the overwhelming majority of attackers pursuing one goal – financial profit.
* Malware loaders are to become the hottest goods on the underground market – Many actors have their own malware, but that alone is not enough. Entire samples used to consist of ransomware alone. But when there are different types of modules in ransomware, it is easier for the threat to evade detection. As a result, attackers are now paying much more attention to downloaders and droppers, which can avoid detection.
