The Dridex banking trojan that is widely being used by cyber criminals to distribute malware onto users’ machines has now been found distributing a security software.
A portion of the Dridex banking Trojan botnet may have been hacked or compromised by an unknown Whitehat Hacker, who replaced the malicious links with Avira Antivirus installers.

At CeBIT in Hanover, T-Systems CEO Reinhard Clemens said: “Customers are often unsure when it comes to security software. Since the Snowden revelations, they are also anxious and asking for a ‘made in Germany’ protection solution. Deutsche Telekom wants to make it easy for as many people as possible to secure their smartphones and computers. That is why we are expanding our existing offering to include an easy-to-install package version from Germany.”
Our very own Avira Antivirus will take care of the security part of said package and protect your Windows PCs and Macs, smartphones and tablets with the iOS and Android operating systems, and servers and networks against malware, using an integrated real-time scanner. Thanks to its cloud-based scanning Avira Antivirus achieves unparalleled security and lightning fast performance. Of course it also reliably scans your downloads, folders, and hard disks.
“Avira Browser Safety” will be included in the package as well. The browser extension protects personal information when surfing the internet and blocks malicious websites as well as tracking by advertising networks, so that they can no longer track what a user is searching for or purchasing online.
The free offering is available to download with the market launch in the second quarter this year at www.telekom.de/schutzpaket. A premium version of the offering with additional functions is planned.

It seems redundant to even mention it because a good protection is what everybody would expect from an Antivirus. Take a closer look at our product and you will notice that Protection is where Avira Antivirus Pro really excels. Fortunately, it’s not only us who say so, industry experts agree: we are scoring some of the highest results on a regular basis in the AV-Comparatives, AV-TEST and VB100 testings. We owe every success to our cutting-edge antivirus technology, including the Avira Protection Cloud. This little gem strengthens the protection, helps with detection, and makes it almost impossible for cybercriminals to bypass our defenses.
Ever wondered how the Avira Protection Cloud works?
Avira Protection Cloud is not the only cool thing that makes Avira Antivirus Pro shine among all other security programs. With new digital threats emerging all the time, an antivirus has to be fully up-to-date. It is exactly why the information about malicious software required for detection is saved by Avira in V(irus)D(efinition)F(iles) files. With one of our latest upgrades those files received, they were enhanced to minimize the amount of data involved and to keep the updates small and therefor faster.
All of the above might sound rather complicated, but let’s be honest: when you have to use an antivirus application you don’t want to go through pages of cryptic information, complex menus, and confusing instructions. Sure – the development and technology behind an antivirus can be complex but you, our user, should not be affected by it. That’s why our software comes with a clear and streamlined user interface designed with your comfort in mind.
