How To Identify and Prevent Tiny Banker Trojan?

Itā€™s been nearly two years since cyber attackers first demonstrated their know-how to target small businesses. Ever since, criminals have been taking advantage of small business owners by targeting the most basic elements of small business operations: banking and accounting. The reason for this is simple. Small businesses are often underfunded, so theyā€™re more likely than bigger companies to lack the resources necessary to protect themselves from cyber attacks. With that being said, there are several red flags you can look out for if your business is being targeted by a tiny banker.

How To Identify and Prevent Tiny Banker Trojan?

What Is Tiny Banker Trojan?

Tiny banker Trojan is a form of malware that can steal banking credentials and funnel the money into specific accounts. Unlike other ransomware, Tiny banker Trojan doesnā€™t destroy or encrypt data. Instead, it steals information like bank account numbers, PIN numbers, login credentials, and passwords from a computer and relays the information to hackers. Employees usually donā€™t notice anything unusual until itā€™s too late and their company has been drained of funds.

How does the Tinba Banking Trojan Works?

This Trojan is able to remain hidden in your system for years by disguising itself as different files. Once it has been installed, this malware will create a backdoor so that the criminal behind the attacks can access your computer and steal all of your sensitive information. It will also send spam emails and collect personal data so that the criminals behind the attacks can use it to sell on the black market.

Tinba is spread through malicious attachments or links to websites, as well as fake security software downloads. If you ever receive an email from someone asking you to download something from a website, make sure youā€™re actually downloading what you think you are. Additionally, keeping up with the latest and greatest software is important for any business owner. If your company doesnā€™t have a security program, now is a good time to find one and implement it into your system for protection.

How to detect Tiny Banker Trojan?

To detect tiny banker Trojan, youā€™ll need to rely on your businessā€™s financial records.Ā 

If your company is small, then it will have a limited amount of bank accounts, so you need to look for unusual activity in just one account. For example, if an account has suddenly been overdrawn or the money deposited into that account has been withdrawn in a short period of time. You might also look out for suspicious payment receipts that were sent to the wrong recipient.

How to remove the Tiny Banker Trojan?

The first step to removing the Tiny Banker Trojan is identifying it. This can be done by conducting a security audit of your businessā€™s systems by an independent company or by doing a complete investigation of your own. There are many red flags to look for that may indicate your system is being compromised, such as information not being passed along properly or the system crashing unexpectedly.

Once you find evidence that your business has been targeted, you need to understand what the threat does and how it works. The best way to identify this is by doing an online search for Tiny Banker Trojans. From these results, you will get a better understanding of what the cyber attackerā€™s goal is and how they plan on executing it.

An important part of removing the Tiny Banker Trojan is understanding its effect on your business. Once you have identified what the attack does and how it works, you will be able to work with any third-party solution providers (such as antivirus software) and implement preventive measures that can help prevent future attacks from happening.

Bottom Line

The bottom line? When it comes to protecting your business from cyber attacks, there are a few key ways you can identify if you have a tiny banker. First, youā€™ll want to look for any suspicious email attachments. If your small business has been receiving any unsolicited emails with attachments that donā€™t seem like they would fit in with the type of project theyā€™d send you, chances are those attachments could be malicious Trojan horses.

Lastly, it may be beneficial to call into your bank and ask them directly about their security measures and if they have any concerns about your account. If they donā€™t answer these questions specifically, it might be a sign that your bank is not as secure as you think it is. In fact, 12 percent of banks will allow foreign nationals access to certain accounts without a proper background check.
