Case Study: Leading Bank detects banking trojan targeting customers with Digital Shadows SearchLight

Configuration File of Trojan Targets Organization

Leading Bank, a financial services organization, needed to understand the risk posed when a configuration file revealed that a banking trojan was targeting its customers. Using Digital Shadows SearchLight™, the bank sought visibility into the malware’s targets, delivery methods, and potential impact to assess the threat to customer credentials and accounts.

Digital Shadows analyzed the configuration files, verified the incident, and added context on the trojan’s features and activity. Digital Shadows then alerted the bank the same morning with recommended actions, enabling the bank to warn customers and advise them on protecting themselves, helping reduce reputational and customer-risk impact.
