This is nothing new, but to make a quick follow up on Olaiz’s previous post, I’m a bit ByteDefender. I am always impressed with the way these cybercrooks create a name for their rogueware.
Let’s take a look at some of the samples captured and published o autovin website.

These people take their work very seriously. If you take a look at Antivirus Soft, you can even see they have their own slogan: “Innovative Protection for your PC”. Either they got a marketing team with them, or they are really good at faking things (faking an antimalware software is considered as one).
When is this going to end?
Panda Security specializes in the development of endpoint security products and is part of the WatchGuard portfolio of IT security solutions. Initially focused on the development of antivirus software, the company has since expanded its line of business to advanced cyber-security services with technology for preventing cyber-crime.
