Evidence of infection with the W32.Erkez.C@mm worm has been found on the system. W32.Erkez.C@mm is a mass-mailing worm that sends itself to the email addresses found on an infected computer. It also copies itself to the folders that are likely to be shared on file-sharing networks.
When this worm infects a computer, it attempts to overwrite .exe files. The files that it targets are usually executables that belong to security products. If succeeded it may cause some programs or operating system functions to work incorrectly.
With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
