New Technology Review - Mobile Zombie Malware
Georgia Weidman has introduced a new technology review related for mobile zombie malware, but is not a sufficient think since hackers can be using it for other nefarious deeds. Prior we have been seems a many types of new technology with mobile phone but this new think, Weidman plans on demo-in her creation at the upcoming schmoocon in washington D.C(District of Columbia). using 3 Android mobile phones.
Ms. Weidman explains in her testing process: “When I infected a phone in my botnet—my lab botnet—with malware, the smart phone would receive a message through SMS and I would check to see if it has botnet instructions in it. If it does, it would perform the functionality requests, and then it would swallow the message, so the user does not know that there was a message at all.”
Really superb Mobile Zombie Malware – new technology!
