After a two-year hiatus, the Octo malware has returned with improved capabilities that make it easier for hackers to use it to completely take over the best Android phones.
As reported by The Hacker News, security researchers at ThreatFabric have discovered a new version of this Android banking trojan called Octo2. So far, it’s mainly been used in campaigns across Europe but this malware could easily be reconfigured to target Android users in the U.S., Canada and other countries around the world.
