Overview

Most infostealers are sold as a service rather than as software. The customer pays a monthly fee and receives a build and a management panel where the logs are collected. Malpedia (Fraunhofer FKIE)

The panel lets the customer filter logs by country, domain or wallet presence, choose which data to collect and send additional payloads to infected devices. Zscaler
