Default Keylogging Trojan Dodges Anti-virus Detection

Keylogging Trojan Dodges Anti-virus Detection
A new variant of the Russian Trojan Gozi, armed with keylogging functionality, is making the rounds again. What makes this time different is that the Trojan can scramble itself to avoid detection by your anti-virus software.

The Trojan is believed to have been spreading since April 17. Like the original, which was discovered earlier in 2007, the new version of Gozi steals data from encrypted SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) streams. The latest variant was uncovered May 7 by Don Jackson, a security researcher at SecureWorks in Atlanta.
