Financial Case Study: International Bank of Commerce Detects Jaff Malware

In 2017, IBC faced a new zero-day ransomware threat known as Jaff. The high-volume phishing malware, which affects Windows machines, enters an end-user’s machine through the opening of a PDF document embedded in an email message that tricks the user into thinking that the enclosed document contains business-related documents or invoices. BluVector delivered the IBC threat team the knowledge it needed to detect and respond to what would later be known as the Jaff malware before it became a problem.
