New EmoCheck Tool Checks if You’re Infected With Emotet

A new utility has been released by Japan CERT (computer emergency response team) that allows Windows users to easily check if they are infected with the Emotet Trojan. The Trojan is one of the most actively distributed malware that is spread through phishing emails with malicious Word document attachments. Once installed, it will utilize the infected computer to send further spam to potential victims and also download other malware onto the computer. It commonly downloads and installs the Trickbot banking Trojan, which steals saved credentials, cookies, browser history, SSH keys, and more.
