Hackers Take Advantage of Zoom’s Popularity to Push Malware

Check Point Research found malicious files using a zoom-us-zoom_##########.exe naming scheme which, when executed, will launch an InstallCore installer that will try to install potentially unwanted third-party applications or malicious payloads.
