Sales of antivirus able to beat Zeus trojan open

The notorious ZeuS banking trojan keeps being distributed in the Internet faster than ever. About 7 per cent of all viral attacks in the world occur due to Zeus, as only in America almost 4 million computers have been infected with it. Taking into consideration the fact that in 1% cases $10 – $100 thousand leave the accounts of victims and flow away to intruders’ accounts, you can easily imagine the amount of financial losses caused by this trojan’s infections to Internet banking customers. What is more important is that the losses also occur from corporate accounts holding the money for salary payments, while such transactions made from the corporate account aren’t retroactive.
ZeuS is able to trace and send to the hackers both financial data needed for authentication in payment systems, and any other file on your computer, using remote access. Antivirus and security systems often can’t help, as the Trojan managed to pass over such protection methods as certificates and pass keys to personal accounts, and DiggiPass.
This is how ZeuS works: after the victim has logged into online banking system from the contaminated PC, the trojan sends money to hackers’ accounts within one banking session. Due to using “the cap of invisibility” by Virtual Network Computing, which is available in the last version of the virus, the user’s presence is no longer required. ZeuS will do everything instead of you, including logging in banking systems and transmitting money to other accounts. For doing this it uses your browser, most likely IE or Firefox, despite it was considered very safe.
The users of the following payment systems are at risk in developing countries, including Russia: WebMoney, Yandex.Money, OSMP (Qiwi) and RBK Money, as well as the holders of Alfa-Bank and Citibank accounts, which addresses have got into virus configuration files.
As for the Western community, any account holder with the Bank of America is a potential victim, alongside with brokerage accounts of companies Ameritrade, Schwabs, Option Express and Fidelity pension funds. In addition, card holders should be aware that current banking service enables changing the billing address online, making your card able to get a new house and spend spree via online stores like amazon.com and similar.
Polymorphic encryption, the latest innovation, makes virus even more protected from the majority of the popular antivirus software. However, one of the companies managed to repulse an aggressor – the Martindale Enterprises Limited released a new antivirus Shield EC. According to the reports of the developers, it ensures a total isolation of the computer from the menace, even if the signature code isn’t in its databases yet.
Company’s press release says that Shield EC was born after two years of joint research in collaboration with Zeus Tracker (the major center for ZeuS spreading prevention). It also emphasizes that software is also recommended for use in large companies, helping to prevent great financial losses.
Shield EC can be purchased at the website of distributors at about $70, which is not such an enormous price for ability to protect yourself from data and money loss, particularly if you really have something to lose.
