  • 1.  Dyre Malware

    Posted Sep 08, 2014 09:15 AM

    Salesforce is informing its customers to confirm their anti-malware solution is capable of detecting the Dyre malware.  I searched Symantec's Security Response site and can find nothing relating to this malware.

    Anyone have any information regarding Symantec's abilities to detect this?

    Depends on the name, Symantec may have classified it under a different name.

    I searched Security Response for both Dyre and Dyreza with no returns.

    May be is not an option.

     

    Thanks.

    Looks like it's classified as Infostealer.Dyranges by Symantec

    Brian, I see no reference to Dyre and Dyreza in what you referenced in Symantec's writeup or Sophos?

    It's the virustotal report showing what Symantec classifies it as. There is no writeup from Symantec that I've found.

    The information above is correct.  Symantec detects this threat as Infostealer.Dyranges.  We have been closely monitoring this threat and updating signatures against it.

    The advice on this page is important for end users:

    Admins of larger organizations may wish to ensure that the mail security tool in place is correctly scanning incoming and outgoing traffic.

    Hope this helps!
