Třída: Email-Worm
Email-Worms se šíří e-mailem. Červ zasílá vlastní kopii jako přílohu k e-mailové zprávě nebo k odkazu na soubor na síťovém zdroji (např. URL na infikovaný soubor na ohrožených webových stránkách nebo webových stránkách vlastněných hackery).V prvním případě se červový kód aktivuje při otevření (spuštěném) infikovaném přílohě. Ve druhém případě je kód aktivován, když se otevře odkaz na infikovaný soubor. V obou případech je výsledek stejný: aktivuje se kód červů.
Email-Worms používají řadu metod pro odesílání infikovaných e-mailů. Nejběžnější jsou:
pomocí přímého připojení k serveru SMTP pomocí e-mailového adresáře zabudovaného do kódu červa
pomocí služeb MS Outlook
pomocí funkcí systému Windows MAPI.
Email-Worms používají řadu různých zdrojů, aby našli e-mailové adresy, na které budou zasílány infikované e-maily:
adresář v aplikaci MS Outlook
databázi adres WAB
.txt soubory uložené na pevném disku: červa může identifikovat, které řetězce v textových souborech jsou e-mailové adresy
e-maily v doručené poště (některé e-mailové červy dokonce "odpověď" na e-maily nalezené ve doručené poště)
Mnoho e-mailových červů používá více než jeden ze zdrojů uvedených výše. Existují také další zdroje e-mailových adres, jako jsou například adresáře spojené s webovými e-mailovými službami.
Platfoma: Win32
Win32 je rozhraní API v operačních systémech Windows NT (Windows XP, Windows 7 atd.), Které podporují provádění 32bitových aplikací. Jedna z nejrozšířenějších programovacích platforem na světě.Family: Email-Worm.Win32.Scano

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.

System Information Discovery
An adversary may attempt to get detailed information about the operating system and hardware, including version, patches, hotfixes, service packs, and architecture. Adversaries may use the information from System Information Discovery during automated discovery to shape follow-on behaviors, including whether or not the adversary fully infects the target and/or attempts specific actions.
Tools such as Systeminfo can be used to gather detailed system information. If running with privileged access, a breakdown of system data can be gathered through the
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud providers such as AWS, GCP, and Azure allow access to instance and virtual machine information via APIs. Successful authenticated API calls can return data such as the operating system platform and status of a particular instance or the model view of a virtual machine.(Citation: Amazon Describe Instance)(Citation: Google Instances Resource)(Citation: Microsoft Virutal Machine API)
Tools such as Systeminfo can be used to gather detailed system information. If running with privileged access, a breakdown of system data can be gathered through the
systemsetup configuration tool on macOS. As an example, adversaries with user-level access can execute the df -aH command to obtain currently mounted disks and associated freely available space. Adversaries may also leverage a Network Device CLI on network devices to gather detailed system information (e.g. show version).(Citation: US-CERT-TA18-106A) System Information Discovery combined with information gathered from other forms of discovery and reconnaissance can drive payload development and concealment.(Citation: OSX.FairyTale)(Citation: 20 macOS Common Tools and Techniques)Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud providers such as AWS, GCP, and Azure allow access to instance and virtual machine information via APIs.

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.

T1071.001
Application Layer Protocol: Web Protocols
Adversaries may communicate using application layer protocols associated with web traffic to avoid detection/network filtering by blending in with existing traffic. Commands to the remote system, and often the results of those commands, will be embedded within the protocol traffic between the client and server.
Protocols such as HTTP/S(Citation: CrowdStrike Putter Panda) and WebSocket(Citation: Brazking-Websockets) that carry web traffic may be very common in environments. HTTP/S packets have many fields and headers in which data can be concealed. An adversary may abuse these protocols to communicate with systems under their control within a victim network while also mimicking normal, expected traffic.
