PikaBot is a malware that exploits Google Ads to infiltrate corporate networks. It started as part of email spam campaigns but has now shifted to search engine ads. PikaBot uses sophisticated techniques like indirect syscalls and JavaScript fingerprinting to conceal its malicious payload. It is part of a larger malvertising ecosystem and signifies the revival of drive-by downloads. Businesses need to go beyond traditional defenses to protect against malvertising. Detecting and reporting PikaBot-laden installers is crucial in this ongoing digital warfare. #cybersecurity #malware
