Hackers Hammer Android and iPhone Users As Bank Account Attacks Surge 258% in One Year: Kaspersky

The number of Android and iPhone users hit by bank malware is skyrocketing as criminals increasingly shift to mobile devices. In a new report , the cybersecurity firm Kaspersky says the number of smartphone users who encountered banking malware in 2024 soared 258% year-on-year. “In 2024, the number of users who encountered mobile banking Trojans grew 3.6 times compared to 2023: from 69,200 to 247,949.” The most active mobile malware targeting bank accounts was Mamont, commanding a market share of approximately 36.7% in 2024. “This malware first appeared at the end of 2023 and is distributed mostly in Russia and the CIS. Its distribution schemes are ranging from ages-old “Is that you in the picture?” scams to complex social engineering plots with fake stores and delivery tracking apps.” Countries in Europe and Asia were the most heavily impacted by mobile banking malware in the last year. As for banking malware targeting PCs (personal computers), some of the most significantly impacted countries in 2024 were in Central Asia, Kaspersky says. “As in 2023, the highest share of banking Trojans was registered in Afghanistan, where it rose from 6% to 9% in 2024. Turkmenistan was next (as in 2023), where the figure rose from 5.2% to 8.8%, and Tajikistan was in third place (again), where the figure rose from 3.7% to 6.2%.” Going forward, Kaspersky’s senior web content analyst Olga Svistunova, says the level of sophistication that cybercriminals employ to reach users is only going to rise. “Looking ahead, we expect financial phishing to become even more personalized and targeted, focusing on exploiting vulnerabilities in everyday digital habits, which will demand increased vigilance and thorough approaches to protection.” Follow us on X , Facebook and Telegram Don`t Miss a Beat – Subscribe to get email alerts delivered directly to your inbox Check Price Action Surf The Daily Hodl Mix Disclaimer: Opinions expressed at The Daily Hodl are not investment advice.

OKB PRICE ANALYSIS & PREDICTION (April 6) – OKB Signals Bullish as it Posts Double-Digit Gains Amid Weekend Meltdown

After pulling back for two weeks, OKB found support and bounced back with over 10% gains in the last 24 hours. It appears highly bullish on the daily chart while several altcoins are currently taking a downturn. Last month marked a slight turnaround in OKB’s landscape after sharply rejecting the $38 level with a bounce. This led to a major surge, and the price exploded massively to $54, its highest level in a month. Unfortunately, it faced a rejection in the mid-month, and the price dropped steadily on a pullback mode. Crossing over into this month on a weak note, it found support above $45 on Thursday and resurged strongly to where it is priced at $51.6. We may see a drop if the bears intercept. Considering the latest surge in volatility, the bulls appear to be gaining control on the daily chart. A strong weekly close could facilitate a key break above the previous monthly high. If that comes into play, bigger price movements should be expected in the coming week. While this surge signals a potential bullish move, the trend may reverse if the price climbs above $65 capable of activating a major rally on the mid-term scale. Right now, it is too early to consider a reversal pattern as many obstacles lie ahead for the bulls, even if they sustain pressure. OKB’s Key Levels to Watch Source: Tradingview Ahead of the bulls lies the $54 resistance level. Overcoming this close obstacle could pace the price to the $56.7 and $62 resistance levels. For a pullback, the $48.2 level is considered a nearby support. Failure to rebound could slip the price back to the weekly low of $45.1. The lower support level is marked at $40, followed by last month’s $38 low Key Resistance Levels: $54, $56.7, $62 Key Support Levels: $48.2, $45.1, $40 Price: $51.6 Trend: Bullish Volatility: High Disclosure: This is not trading or investment advice.
