The Cybercrime Intelligence Report covers the following:
- Cybercriminals are professionally organized and operate affiliate networks to boost their malware and rogueware distribution
- To promote their rogueware, they compromise legitimate websites by injecting SEO targeted pages which include repetitive popular search keywords with minor typos
- Search engines indexed these injected pages and display them as top search results
- This SEO targeted technique has proven to be very effective and yielded almost half a million Google searches to compromised sites, according to statistics found on the criminal’s server during the research
- 1.8M unique users were redirected to the rogue Anti-Virus software during 16 consecutive days
- Members of the affiliate network were rewarded for each successful redirection with 9.6 cents “a piece”, which totals $ 172,800 or $ 10,800 per day
