Threat Scorecard
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecard
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are assessment reports for different malware threats which have been collected and analyzed by our research team. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards evaluate and rank threats using several metrics including real-world and potential risk factors, trends, frequency, prevalence, and persistence. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are updated regularly based on our research data and metrics and are useful for a wide range of computer users, from end users seeking solutions to remove malware from their systems to security experts analyzing threats.
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards display a variety of useful information, including:
Popularity Rank: The ranking of a particular threat in EnigmaSoft’s Threat Database.
Severity Level: The determined severity level of an object, represented numerically, based on our risk modeling process and research, as explained in our Threat Assessment Criteria.
Infected Computers: The number of confirmed and suspected cases of a particular threat detected on infected computers as reported by SpyHunter.

The Clean My Browser program is presented to Web surfers as a browser extension that can be added to Google Chrome via its official page on Cleanmybrowser.com and Chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/clean-my-browser/jmpkkhdlmmnjldpkdhdgheghddpdciem. The Clean My Browser program is promoted as both security and an optimization solution for a Web browser. The following marketing pitch is placed on the Chrome Web Store page for the extension:
'CleanMyBrowser identifies extensions that require higher permissions when installed and could potentially violate or exploit your privacy. With CleanMyBrowser you can identify such extensions and remove and clean them from your Chrome browser in a simple way.
-Improves your Chrome browser performance
-Cleans your browser of unnecessary and harmful extensions
-Protects your privacy of your data
-Improves speed of browser'
You should note that the comments section of Chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/clean-my-browser/jmpkkhdlmmnjldpkdhdgheghddpdciem is empty even if there are 9004 people (at the time of research) using the app on a daily basis. You might think that the Clean My Browser app offers some interface and let you remove potentially dangerous extensions, but it doesn't. The developers of Clean My Browser have not provided information on the methods and guidelines used to distinguish resource-hungry, unsafe and intrusive third-party extensions. Moreover, the only feature of Clean My Browser that seems clear enough is that it changes your new tab and primary search aggregator to search.cleanmybrowser.com. The privileges requested by the Clean My Browser during installation are as follow:
- Read and change all your data on the websites you visit.
- Read and change your browsing history.
- Manage your apps, extensions and themes.
- Communicate with cooperating sites.
- Change your search settings to search.cleanmybrowser.com.
You can install and benefit from Clean My Browser for free as long as you like. However, you would be unable to change your default search to anything other than search.cleanmybrowser.com as long as you keep Clean My Browser attached to your Internet client. The portal search.cleanmybrowser.com acts as redirect-gateway to search.yahoo.com. The Clean My Browser software is an ad-supported product that may collect data like your input on search.cleanmybrowser.com, your Internet history, and software configuration to help advertisers at Search.yahoo.com deliver targeted commercial materials. If you need to clean the browser's cache and cookies, there is a built-in tool for that in almost every browser nowadays. The most common path to the browser cleanup tool is Settings > Advanced > Clean browsing data in Chrome, for Firefox go Options > Privacy > Clear your recent history and in IE click Internet Options > General > Delete Browsing History. PC users that want to remove the persistent tracking cookies and Web beacons downloaded by Clean My Browser may need help from a credible anti-spyware tool.

Digital Signatures
Digital Signatures
This section lists digital signatures that are attached to samples within this family. When analyzing and verifying digital signatures, it is important to confirm that the signature’s root authority is a well-known and trustworthy entity and that the status of the signature is good. Malware is often signed with non-trustworthy “Self Signed” digital signatures (which can be easily created by a malware author with no verification). Malware may also be signed by legitimate signatures that have an invalid status, and by signatures from questionable root authorities with fake or misleading “Signer” names.| Signer | Root | Status |

Block Information
Block Information
During analysis, EnigmaSoft breaks file samples into logical blocks for classification and comparison with other samples. Blocks can be used to generate malware detection rules and to group file samples into families based on shared source code, functionality and other distinguishing attributes and characteristics. This section lists a summary of this block data, as well as its classification by EnigmaSoft. A visual representation of the block data is also displayed, where available.| Total Blocks: | 821 |

Similar Families
Similar Families
This section lists other families that share similarities with this family, based on EnigmaSoft’s analysis. Many malware families are created from the same malware toolkits and use the same packing and encryption techniques but uniquely extend functionality. Similar families may also share source code, attributes, icons, subcomponents, compromised and/or invalid digital signatures, and network characteristics. Researchers leverage these similarities to rapidly and effectively triage file samples and extend malware detection rules.- Stealer.EA
