The 16-minute film opens with an introduction to Emotet. The audience will be startled by the level of sophistication the cybergang utilized to stay under the radar. Emotet operated as a facilitator, rather than committing hacks directly. They have been known to be one of the world’s most dangerous malwares. By relentlessly moving their servers to avoid detection, they became unfeasible to seize. The film reveals some of the destruction caused by Emotet malware, through email viruses – notably with Heise Publishing and a hospital. Finally, after several glitches in their online practices, an international team of cyber police – in cooperation with Europol – tracked down the perpetrators in Ukraine.
Coming Soon
