A cybercriminal group called Outlaw is using a Perl Shellbot to go after large organizations Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Outlaw communicates with the botnet using two compromised servers that belong to a Japanese art institution and a Bangladeshi government website. The code Outlaw used in its attacks is available online. Anyone can use that code to create a bot with an undetectable toolset. To protect their organizations against Outlaws activity, Trend Micro recommended monitoring for the creation of new accounts and restricting the use of FTP as much as possible.”]
