🔴 What is it?

• UK Network operators are detecting a rise in Flubot victims this week via Text or MMS messages.
• Flubot is a Malware smishing attack, first detected in April but now significantly on the rise recently.

🟠 How does it work?

• Affects only Android devices at this moment.
• In the guise of a voicemail or app link to download.
• If Flubot is downloaded and installed it will message contacts from the users phone to continue spreading and even access to banking apps.

🟢 What Can I do?

• No preventable measures are possible at this moment.
• However, keeping your staff aware of such threats is a great solution. Speak to us about our Digital Workshops if you’d like staff training relating to Cyber Security issues.
