Google obtained a court order to disrupt the distribution of CryptBot, an information-stealing malware that has infected over 670,000 computers.
The malware is typically delivered via maliciously modified versions of legitimate software.
The major distributors of CryptBot are suspected to be operating a worldwide criminal enterprise based out of Pakistan.
To mitigate risks posed by such threats, it is advised to only download software from well-known and trusted sources, scrutinize reviews, and keep systems up-to-date.
Google intends to use the court order to take down domains associated with the distribution of CryptBot.
