Can Fbot Help Prevent Crypto Mining Cyber Attacks by Destroying “com.ufo.miner” Malware?

Colleagues, we have extensively reported on the dramatic rise in crypto mining cyber-attacks in 2018 that have plagued the crypto ecosystem. Enter Fbot. Security researchers are unclear if Fbot is a friend or foe with regard to crypto mining. However, they have confirmed that Fbot is designed to propagate, scan and install itself over “com.ufo.miner“ malware which targets vulnerable browser software. According to NetLab 360, com.ufo.miner has its origins in monero ADB Miner Android-based software. At first glance, it would appear that Fbot might be a tool of unknown origin, which can reduce browser vulnerability to cyber-attacks. The key question is whether Fbot has an ulterior motive – that is to destroy com.ufo.miner and clear the path for another form of crypto mining malware to be installed in its place. Share a comment today!
