Cridex

Description

Cridex is a banking trojan and worm that steals financial credentials and self propagates through network shares, often serving as a loader for additional malware payloads. It emerged in 2011 and evolved into the Feodo and Dridex banking trojan lineages that remain active today. Its combination of worm like spreading and credential theft made it particularly effective inside corporate networks, where a single infected host could compromise many others.
