Virus Zeus Ancam Data Pribadi Blackberry
RIM mengklaim bahwa Blackberry OS adalah OS yang sangat handal, aman, dan sangat susah untuk di inveksi virus. Namun baru-baru ini, menurut TrendMicro, telah tersebar virus baru bernama Zeus Trojan yang menjangkiti fitur sms Blackberry.
Malware Zeus khusus ditargetkan untuk OS BlackBerry dan saat ini terdeteksi sebagai BBOS_ZITMO.B. Zeus varian ini tidak menampilkan tampilan antarmuka pengguna grafis (GUI) yang dapat diketahui oleh pengguna bila sedang terinfeksi. Sebaliknya, ia bisa menghilangkan diri dari daftar aplikasi, agar dapat secara efektif tidak terdeteksi.
Setelah trojan Zeus telah berhasil diinstal, virus akan mengirimkan pemberitahuan konfirmasi kepada administrator pembuat virus bahwa virus telah siap untuk perintah lebih lanjut. BBOS_ZITMO.B juga memungkinkan admin untuk mengubah nomor penerusan menggunakan SMS (sms forward).
Menurut analisa, virus ZeuS Trojan bisa melakukan:
* Display SMS: Unmonitored SMS will be treated as a normal SMS and will be displayed on the phone.
* Delete/Drop SMS: SMS from hacker will not be seen by the user.
* Forward SMS: Send SMS to hacker without the user’s knowledge.
* Block Calls
* Remove Block Calls
* Set Administrator: Register a new administrator.
* On/Off
- Add Sender
- Remove Sender
- Set Sender
- Block/Unblock Phone Numbers
Saat ini meskipun virus ini belum tersebar secara luas, namun kemungkinan untuk tersebar kedalam Blackberry kita tetap saja dapat terjadi.
Untuk menjaga keamanan Blackberry anda, hati-hati dalam mendownload aplikasi atau themes dari situs yang tidak jelas asal-muasalnya. Lengkapi juga Blackberry anda dengan aplikasi anti virus yang akan menjaga smartphone secara berkala.
Aplikasi antivirus yang dapat dicoba salah satunya adalah Lookout Mobile Security.
