Modular malware is targeting India’s critical infrastructure in a manner that’s extremely difficult to detect, says Prayukth K.V. of Subex Ltd., a telecom solutions provider that has released a new report on the threat.
“Traditionally, what used to happen was malware was deployed in one shot in a network or a system or a device that has been targeted,” Prayukth says in an interview with Information Security Media Group. “In the case of a modular malware, the deployment happens in batches, and these batches could extend to over a year.”
