Windows 10 has just been released and with all highly-anticipated product releases, cybercriminals are already taking advantage of the hype. Recently our engineers here at Trendlabs spotted a spam mail making the rounds, one pretending to be an email notification for a free update of Microsoft's latest OS. And as with all malicious socially-engineered spam, it comes with a dangerous attachment, namely a zipped archive full of cryptoransomware. Specifically, CTB-Locker. We detect this particular strain as TROJ_CRYPCTB.RUI.
Trend Micro customers are protected from this threat.
