Microsoft Security Bulletin: Quakbot and Emotet Trojans

November 22, 2017 Jared Hall General

Earlier this month, Microsoft released a security bulletin with comprehensive information about the Quakbot and Emotet Banking Trojans.

They release their own variant of this malware’s Kill Chain:

To guard against this problem, Microsoft has two solutions; (1) Use Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) with Office 365/Exchange Online email services, and (2) Activate the Windows Defender Exploit Guard which is included in the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update.

The Microsoft bulletin is a very good, comprehensive breakdown of these banking trojans and is worth the read.  It can be found here.
