View our Tech Talk: Security Edition, Detecting Trickbot with Splunk 

Trickbot is a very popular crimeware carrier associated with recent ransomware campaigns. It is a trojan that has gained popularity from being effective at infecting and propagating botnets – one of the main financial drivers of cyber criminal groups.

The effectiveness of trickbot crimeware comes from its stealthiness and versatility in installing payloads for further lateral movement and post-exploitation profit-driven activities such as cryptocurrency, ransomware, or banking fraud. But don’t worry! The Splunk Security Research team has developed an analytic story targeting Trickbot TTPs to help you detect them in your environment and respond immediately.
