Are you downloading torrent files? Wait!
I have been following the reports from the internet security company ESET. Recently, researchers have found a new malware KryptoCibule which is designed to attack cryptocurrency enthusiasts by cyber-criminals. You can check the detail report from ESET here. This malware has been found in pirated torrent files with multitasking features to steal crypto holder's multi-currency. You know nowadays, you can find even the premium software on the torrent sites for free but if you download them, you are exposing yourself to a risk to lose everything from your computer.

Once this malware finds a way to a victim's computer it attacks in three ways
First, it installs a miner to mine cryptocurrency in a behalf of malware operators(Cryptojacking)
Then, it steals all the crypto-related data and hence wipes out the funds from the victim's computer
Eventually, the malware replaces the victim's wallet address to hijack all the incoming transactions
