Info Stealing
RAT
Windows
RisePro is an advanced information stealer designed to harvest sensitive data like passwords, credit card details, and cryptocurrency wallets. Written in C++, it is often distributed through malicious downloads and the PrivateLoader malware service, posing a serious risk to individuals and organizations alike.
RisePro emerged as a notable information stealer in late 2022 and has since gained traction in cybercriminal circles. Often sold as part of Malware-as-a-Service (MaaS) offerings, its adaptable deployment methods and evolving capabilities make it a powerful tool for data theft and financial exploitation.
How It Spreads
RisePro relies on various infection methods, including masquerading as cracked software or legitimate applications. It has been linked to PrivateLoader, a pay-per-install distribution service, which helps it spread through malicious links, phishing campaigns, and other deceptive tactics.
Data Collection and Exfiltration
Once installed, RisePro collects system details such as the operating system and installed software. It then focuses on extracting sensitive data, including login credentials, cryptocurrency wallets, and financial information. This data is exfiltrated to command-and-control servers for use in fraud or resale on black markets.
