Malware is
a new round in the development of tactics used by Lazarus to invisibly infect
Macs.
The Lazarus
APT group, often linked by experts to the DPRK government, has been armed with
new macOS hacking techniques.
K7
Computing Security Analyst Dinesh Devadoss discovered the first malware in the
Lazarus arsenal to run in Mac memory. Such file-free programs work exclusively
in the computer’s RAM, which allows them to successfully bypass anti-virus
solutions that look for malicious files on hard drives.
