- It is still in early development, but it already behaves like a fully mature operation.
- Once it infects a device, it can take over your screen, steal your banking credentials and even read encrypted chats from apps you trust.
- The worrying part is how quietly it works in the background.
- You think your messages are safe because they are end-to-end encrypted, but this malware simply waits for the phone to decrypt them before grabbing everything.
- It's important to note, however, that Sturnus does not break encryption; it only captures messages after your apps decrypt them on your device.
