The Australian Cyber Security Centre has issued a warning to the health sector, saying it has seen increased targeting by attackers using the SDBBot remote access trojan.
In a statement, the ACSC said the malware had three components: an installer which established persistence, a loader which downloaded additional components, and the RAT itself.
"Once installed, malicious actors will use SDBBot to move laterally within a network and exfiltrate data," the agency said.
"SDBBot is a known precursor of the Clop ransomware."
The ACSC said while it had seen activity targeting the health sector, all networks should review their controls against ransomware as per its recommendations.
There have been three notable attacks by Cl0p this year: one against the German software firm Software AG, a second against a German tech firm NETZSCH Group, and the third against Indian conglomerate Indiabulls.
