“Hackers are starting to deploy tactics that bypass stronger authentication schemes. We have seen a Trojan program that did not have to trick victims out of revealing their password, but instead waited for the victim to check their bank balance and the Trojan then silently siphoned money out of the account. We expect this kind of activity to become more prevalent as banks move to stronger forms of authentication, as tactics typically change only when they need to.”

“We have several samples of the Trojan, but we haven't seen a particularly unusual outbreak, and we haven't seen an unusual level of danger.”
Sam Curry
“There is nothing to prevent a Trojan from making its own entry”
Steve Gibson
“One of the unique things about this Trojan is that it appears to be using a toolkit called Yoda that allows the author to create pseudo-polymorphic code. It's a way to thwart anti-virus signatures.”
Dan Hubbard
“They say, 'Don't look a gift horse in the mouth,' but when it's a Trojan horse, you do.”
Eric Johansson
“We were surprised by the quantity of data that a single one of these Trojans was able to steal... We don't know how many were generated or sold before the system was dismantled, and so the number of companies whose data is now in jeopardy could be very high.”
Luis Corrons
“Going inside to our big kid was something we focused on. He came up big tonight. We knew they (Trojans) were not a real big team and that we might be able to get inside. It worked out for us.”
