Clase: Hoax
Un engaño es una advertencia falsa sobre un virus u otra pieza de código malicioso. Típicamente, un engaño toma la forma de un mensaje de correo electrónico advirtiendo al lector de un nuevo virus peligroso y sugiriendo que el lector pase el mensaje. Los engaños no causan daño en sí mismos, pero su distribución por usuarios bien intencionados a menudo causa miedo e incertidumbre. La mayoría de los proveedores de antivirus incluyen información fraudulenta en sus sitios web y siempre es recomendable verificar antes de reenviar los mensajes de advertencia.Más información

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.

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.
