Classe: Backdoor
Os backdoors são projetados para permitir que usuários mal-intencionados controlem remotamente o computador infectado. Em termos de funcionalidade, os Backdoors são semelhantes a muitos sistemas de administração projetados e distribuídos por desenvolvedores de software. Esses tipos de programas mal-intencionados possibilitam fazer qualquer coisa que o autor queira no computador infectado: enviar e receber arquivos, iniciar ou excluir arquivos, exibir mensagens, excluir dados, reinicializar o computador etc. Os programas nessa categoria costumam ser usados a fim de unir um grupo de computadores da vítima e formar uma rede de botnets ou zumbis. Isso dá aos usuários mal-intencionados controle centralizado sobre um exército de computadores infectados que podem ser usados para fins criminosos. Há também um grupo de Backdoors que são capazes de se espalhar através de redes e infectar outros computadores como os Net-Worms. A diferença é que tais Backdoors não se propagam automaticamente (como fazem os Net-Worms), mas apenas com um “comando” especial do usuário mal-intencionado que os controla.Plataforma: Win32
O Win32 é uma API em sistemas operacionais baseados no Windows NT (Windows XP, Windows 7, etc.) que oferece suporte à execução de aplicativos de 32 bits. Uma das plataformas de programação mais difundidas do mundo.Família: Backdoor.Win32.Lotok

Tactics and Techniques: Mitre*
TA0005
Defense Evasion
The adversary is trying to avoid being detected. Defense Evasion consists of techniques that adversaries use to avoid detection throughout their compromise. Techniques used for defense evasion include uninstalling/disabling security software or obfuscating/encrypting data and scripts. Adversaries also leverage and abuse trusted processes to hide and masquerade their malware. Other tactics' techniques are cross-listed here when those techniques include the added benefit of subverting defenses.
T1036
Masquerading
Adversaries may attempt to manipulate features of their artifacts to make them appear legitimate or benign to users and/or security tools. Masquerading occurs when the name or location of an object, legitimate or malicious, is manipulated or abused for the sake of evading defenses and observation. This may include manipulating file metadata, tricking users into misidentifying the file type, and giving legitimate task or service names.
T1055.012
Process Hollowing
Adversaries may inject malicious code into suspended and hollowed processes in order to evade process-based defenses. Process hollowing is a method of executing arbitrary code in the address space of a separate live process.
T1497.003
Time Based Evasion
Adversaries may employ various time-based methods to detect and avoid virtualization and analysis environments. This may include enumerating time-based properties, such as uptime or the system clock, as well as the use of timers or other triggers to avoid a virtual machine environment (VME) or sandbox, specifically those that are automated or only operate for a limited amount of time.
TA0007
Discovery
The adversary is trying to figure out your environment. Discovery consists of techniques an adversary may use to gain knowledge about the system and internal network. These techniques help adversaries observe the environment and orient themselves before deciding how to act. They also allow adversaries to explore what they can control and what's around their entry point in order to discover how it could benefit their current objective. Native operating system tools are often used toward this post-compromise information-gathering objective.

TA0011
Command and Control
The adversary is trying to communicate with compromised systems to control them.
Command and Control consists of techniques that adversaries may use to communicate with systems under their control within a victim network. Adversaries commonly attempt to mimic normal, expected traffic to avoid detection. There are many ways an adversary can establish command and control with various levels of stealth depending on the victim’s network structure and defenses.

T1571
Non-Standard Port
Adversaries may communicate using a protocol and port pairing that are typically not associated. For example, HTTPS over port 8088(Citation: Symantec Elfin Mar 2019) or port 587(Citation: Fortinet Agent Tesla April 2018) as opposed to the traditional port 443. Adversaries may make changes to the standard port used by a protocol to bypass filtering or muddle analysis/parsing of network data.
Adversaries may also make changes to victim systems to abuse non-standard ports. For example, Registry keys and other configuration settings can be used to modify protocol and port pairings.(Citation: change_rdp_port_conti)
