Sality

Sality, Sector, Kuku, SalLoad, Kookoo, SaliCode, Kukacka
(Type: Botnet, Worm, Downloader, Loader)

(Cylance) The Sality virus infects local executables, removable storage, and remotely shared drives. It creates a peer-to-peer botnet which facilitates the downloading and execution of other malware. Sality can perform malicious code injection and modify its entry point to force code execution. This malware remains viable by adopting the successful strategies of other threats, implementing techniques like rootkit/backdoor capability, keylogging, and worm-like propagation.
