Clase: Trojan-Downloader
Los programas clasificados como Trojan-Downloader descargan e instalan nuevas versiones de programas maliciosos, incluidos troyanos y AdWare, en las computadoras de las víctimas. Una vez descargados de Internet, los programas se inician o se incluyen en una lista de programas que se ejecutarán automáticamente cuando se inicie el sistema operativo. La información sobre los nombres y las ubicaciones de los programas que se descargan se encuentran en el código troyano, o se descargan del troyano desde un recurso de Internet (generalmente una página web). Este tipo de programa malicioso se utiliza con frecuencia en la infección inicial de visitantes de sitios web que contienen exploits.Más información

Credential Access
The adversary is trying to steal account names and passwords.
Credential Access consists of techniques for stealing credentials like account names and passwords. Techniques used to get credentials include keylogging or credential dumping. Using legitimate credentials can give adversaries access to systems, make them harder to detect, and provide the opportunity to create more accounts to help achieve their goals.

Input Capture: Keylogging
Adversaries may log user keystrokes to intercept credentials as the user types them. Keylogging is likely to be used to acquire credentials for new access opportunities when OS Credential Dumping efforts are not effective, and may require an adversary to intercept keystrokes on a system for a substantial period of time before credentials can be successfully captured. In order to increase the likelihood of capturing credentials quickly, an adversary may also perform actions such as clearing browser cookies to force users to reauthenticate to systems.(Citation: Talos Kimsuky Nov 2021)
Keylogging is the most prevalent type of input capture, with many different ways of intercepting keystrokes.(Citation: Adventures of a Keystroke) Some methods include:
* Hooking API callbacks used for processing keystrokes. Unlike Credential API Hooking, this focuses solely on API functions intended for processing keystroke data.
* Reading raw keystroke data from the hardware buffer.
* Windows Registry modifications.
* Custom drivers.
* Modify System Image may provide adversaries with hooks into the operating system of network devices to read raw keystrokes for login sessions.(Citation: Cisco Blog Legacy Device Attacks)
