The Kaspersky company has unveiled a new wave of targeted campaigns that spread through web-reclama and target users of personal computers running under the Windows operating system.
Specialists have drawn attention to the fact that attackers use various types of advertising on web pages for spreading harmful software, including banners and pop-up windows. In this case, users are directed to sites with malicious content, which may lead to the infection of their devices.
Kaspersky representatives noted that such campaigns can lead to serious consequences, including the theft of confidential data and financial resources. Therefore, it is recommended to be especially cautious when interacting with online advertising and to monitor the security of their devices.
