Check Point

Botnets return to worry. Echobot, the new version of Mirai, targets IoT devices while Emotet, dismantled in June, is back in business, raising concerns among security experts.

Securing computers, servers and mobile devices is no longer enough: even digital cameras can be hacked. Researchers at Check Point Research recently demonstrated this.

Check Point has discovered the existence of two new Android malware. SimBad has infected 206 apps downloaded from a total of 150 million users. SWAnalytics has affected only 12 but have already been downloaded 111 million times.
