The malware, active since mid-2024, is part of the Malware-as-a-Service (MaaS) ecosystem and can steal sensitive data including browser credentials and cryptocurrency wallet information. Poseidon uses advanced evasion techniques making it difficult to detect. Users are urged to exercise caution when downloading from unfamiliar sources and to use robust endpoint protection solutions.
