[QUOTE="Adrian Ścibor, post: 1090659, member: 71496"] Dear MalwareTips Users! During this edition of the Advanced In-The Wild Malware Test, a growing trend of ransomware malware and Trojans stealing user credentials has been revealed. Appearing more often than usual ransomware samples in the wild are also confirmed by independent statistics from Check Point – experts show a significant increase in the spread of ransomware in Poland. Here is one example of LockBit 2.0 ransomware spotted in our tests: [ATTACH type="full" width="892px"]283905[/ATTACH] In May 2024, we obtained a total of a dozen unique ransomware samples out of 521 of all malware samples that were qualified for the test. Let us remind that potential malware is obtained from messengers, websites, honeypots. [HEADING=1]Summary of tests in March 2024[/HEADING] We tested 13 solutions. Almost all of them were characterized by 100% neutralization of in-the-wild threats. Almost, because Eset Smart Security software, F-Secure Total, and Panda Dome failed in one or more cases. Not all developers have managed to go through this edition flawlessly. It is worth paying attention to the Remediation Time parameter – this is the average time of complete neutralization of a given threat from the introduction of file into the system, till blocking or neutralization of malware after being launched by the antivirus product.
