A Trojan (or a Trojan Horse) is a very malicious computer program, created by cyber criminals, the purpose of which is to secretly infect a given computer system and to launch certain harmful activities on it which will result in system damage, theft of information, security holes and other unpleasant effects. The reason we are saying this is because recently, there are some extremely dangerous pieces of malware (1HB3KtKoguFuZ4BdmCv9Fc4tYTwDQgmqmW, Cve-2019-1663) roaming around the web and spreading via scams, phishing emails, spam messages and infected attachments. One such infection is the Trojan-based piece of malware called 18BJwpv2RVfCZQP2D4WaduZwef7sXFwP4L Bitcoin Wallet which has the ability to spy on you without your knowledge, steal personal data and use it against you or provide remote access to various hackers among other activities.

 

Usually, the most common criminal deeds that such programs could relate to are linked to banking frauds and theft of financial information, credit or debit card details, misuse of personal information, espionage, Ransomware distribution, as well as system and data corruption and destruction. In many cases, an infection with a Trojan may provide different hackers with unauthorized remote access to the compromised machine and let them take control over its resources. Unfortunately, the effects of the attack don’t always come immediately after you have been infected because, usually, once the Trojan enters the system, it nests deep into the OS and hides all of its traces for an indefinite period of time. This allows it to secretly launch its malicious agenda without being detected in a moment when nobody is expecting it. This being said, a Trojan Horse infection is much more complex and stealthy than a regular computer virus, therefore, it is much more difficult to detect and remove it.
