The so-called malware-as-a-service market reflects a maturing business in which any non-professional can buy or rent all the tools needed to build the malware, distribute it and then siphon credit card and banking data.

Botnets located in the United States fetch the highest prices because victims tend to have more money in bank accounts.”]
