Emotet Malware attacks have increased significantly in the past 24 hours

Over the past 24 hours, specifically in the UK, Malwarebytes have seen an increase of more than 200% in detections of the Emotet Trojan from users deploying our free remediation tool.

Emotet is being used to deliver other malware payloads to endpoints so has a high malicious potential. It’s commonly spread via email, and once in place on your system, it can steal sensitive user information.

All Malwarebytes users have been protected from this threat.
