SVPENG: Mobile Malware Expanding to New Territories

SVPENG is a piece of mobile malware that may well be the first PC-grade malware for mobile devices. It uses a known PC malware technique to trick users into providing the malware with credentials. The malware had already been under investigation by Trusteers security team in 2013, when it was discovered in its testing phases. The early detection allowed Trusteer, now an IBM company, to develop countermeasures that were immediately implemented into the product line, thus allowing immediate detection of the threat.”]
