[QUOTE="Deleted Member 3a5v73x, post: 745710"] Just did usual VM testing with Sophos Home Premium, and played around with some malicious .jar files, suddenly my mouse started to move, for a second I thought my VM is lagging, but no, my VM was remotely taken over. Panic trigger was ON, VM's internet connection closed. Wiping that snapshot now, not going to do further investigation, who, where and how, the fact remains that it is easy to bypass all these Antivirus solutions out there and you should never relay on just one security software and all attack vectors to system should be disabled. That was actually very scary, in my all these years testing stuff in VM I've never experienced this. Thank god I was on with VPN and other safety measures taken. :emoji_fearful::emoji_fearful::emoji_fearful::emoji_fearful: Those who test malicious stuff with just Shadow Defender on their host machines are nuts, you should never do it, because in my example attacker could just steal all credentials and sensitive info over in just couple of seconds. All who are new to this should think twice, it's not a game. :emoji_cold_sweat: [/QUOTE]
