BRATA Malware
Summary
However, since then, the threat has undergone rapid evolution with multiple new versions that each possessed expanded intrusive capabilities. The threatening operations even included fake support agents that lured users into providing them with complete control over their devices. At the start of 2022, BRATA became even more sophisticated, via the addition of using GPS tracking and multiple communication channels to reach the Command-and-Control (C2, C&C) servers. The threat also received a factory reset feature, allowing it to wipe the breached devices after the data on them had already been exfiltrated. Now, a report by Cleafy, an Italian mobile security company, shows that BRATA has evolved, even more, morphing into a persistent threat that aims to stick around on the infected devices.
