Sophos researchers today published a report on updates to Agent Tesla, a family of remote access Trojan (RAT) malware that has grown more popular in recent months. Its developers are buckling down on defense evasion with several techniques, such as targeting Microsoft's Anti-Malware Software Interface (AMSI), to slip past security tools and remain persistent on a device. Agent Tesla, offered as a form of malware-as-a-service, has been active since 2014 and remains a common threat to Windows machines, researchers report. Many attackers use it to steal credentials and other information via scre...
