🛡️ Threat Spotlight: AceCryptor Still Evading Detection
Despite being around since 2016, AceCryptor remains a powerful tool used by cybercriminals to sneak malware past traditional security systems. Acting as a cryptor-as-a-service, it encrypts and disguises malicious software, helping attackers deliver payloads like RedLine Stealer without being detected.
Why It Matters
🔹 Stealth Mode: Used in global campaigns to hide data-stealing malware
🔹 Low Barrier: Available on dark web forums to anyone willing to pay
🔹 Hard to Stop: Constantly updated, making detection challenging
How It Spreads
📦 Cracked software downloads
📧 Malicious email attachments
🦠 Secondary infections from other malware (e.g., botnets)
