What does the pop-up with Trojan:Win32/Sabsik.TE.B!ml detection mean?

The Trojan:Win32/Sabsik.TE.B!ml detection you can see in the lower right side is displayed to you by Microsoft Defender.

Is Trojan:Win32/Sabsik.TE.B!ml dangerous?

As I have pointed out earlier, any malware is harmful. And Trojan:Win32/Sabsik.TE.B!ml is not even near of making more disturbance than real damage. The most deceptive feature of this malware is the fact you cannot spectate its activity in any way, other than with anti-malware software scanning. And when you are having no clue, hackers who successfully delivered their nasty thing to your PC are starting to count the money. Darknet forums offer a lot of opportunities to sell malware logs for a hefty sum – especially when these logs are freshly-collected. And it is a bad idea to imagine what will happen to your accounts when other rascals will put their hands on your credentials.

However, situation may have way faster flow. In some situations, hackers are delivering their virus precisely to the person they are going to rob. Spyware is invaluable when it comes to collecting credentials, and some examples aim precisely at banking accounts or crypto wallets. One may say, giving spyware a run is the same as sending all your money to fraudsters.

How did I get this virus?

It is difficult to trace the origins of malware on your computer. Nowadays, things are mixed, and distribution ways chosen by adware 5 years ago can be utilized by spyware nowadays. But if we abstract from the exact distribution method and will think about why it has success, the explanation will be very simple – low level of cybersecurity knowledge. People click on promotions on strange websites, click the pop-ups they get in their web browsers, call the “Microsoft tech support” assuming that the strange banner that says about malware is true. It is important to know what is legitimate – to avoid misunderstandings when attempting to identify a virus.

The example of Microsoft Tech support scam banner

Nowadays, there are two of the most extensive methods of malware distribution – bait emails and also injection into a hacked program. While the first one is not so easy to evade – you should know a lot to understand a counterfeit – the second one is very easy to address: just don’t use hacked apps. Torrent-trackers and various other sources of “totally free” applications (which are, in fact, paid, but with a disabled license checking) are really a giveaway point of malware. And Trojan:Win32/Sabsik.TE.B!ml is simply among them.
