Fortinet Blog | News and Threat Research JackPOS - Another Credit Card Stealer

In a previous blog post on Dexter, we briefly mentioned a new strain of point-of sale (PoS) malware that has compromised over 4,500 credit cards in the United States and Canada. This new strain of malware, dubbed JackPOS, was detected early this year and between then and the time of writing, has had just one version, but with multiple variants.

In this blog post, we look briefly at the unique attributes of JackPOS: its custom pattern matching and its command-and-control (C&C) communication. We will conclude with quick remarks on the newest variant that was found in April.
