Cybercriminals using powerful BatCloak engine to make malware undetectable

A batch-layer malware obfuscation engine called BatCloak has been used to deploy various malware strains since September 2022, while pervasively evading antivirus detection.

Trend Micro explains the technology in a paper.

The samples grant threat actors the ability to load numerous malware families and exploits with ease through highly obfuscated batch files.

Jlaive’s malware also relies on the technology, which allows it to evade detection by hiding its PowerShell and C

# binary inside a batch file. The report continues, saying that the evolution of batCloak underscores the flexibility and adaptability of this engine and highlights the development of FUD batch obfuscators. It concludes by describing the wide range of applications that can benefit from this engine. #shorts #techshorts #technews #tech #technology #loader layers #DarkCrystal RAT #BatCloak
