The Grandoreiro banking trojan, a notorious malware primarily targeting banks, has resurfaced in a global campaign since March 2024. After a temporary disruption by law enforcement in January, this sophisticated malware has returned, impacting over 1500 banks across 60 countries.

The latest campaign targets entities in Central and South America, Africa, Europe, and the Indo-Pacific. The operators behind Grandoreiro utilise a Malware-as-a-Service (MaaS) model, which has contributed to its widespread distribution.

By understanding its TTPs and implementing robust preventive measures, businesses and individuals can significantly reduce the risk of infection and mitigate the impact of potential breaches.
