PUP.IBryte
PUP.IBryte is a PUP, or Potentially Unwanted Program. Despite not being considered as risky as other threats like Trojans, security analysts consider that PUP.IBryte and similar PUPs are seriously disruptive because they may interfere with your online activities, compromise your privacy and expose your computer to other PUPs or more harmful forms of threats. It is also important to note that the presence of PUP.IBryte on your computer may indicate that other PUPs or even more threats are present on your machine. In most cases, PUP.IBryte may be installed after carelessly downloading and installing a free program from an unreliable source. Malware analysts recommend the immediate removal of PUP.IBryte and similar PUPs. Although PUP.IBryte may be uninstalled like most other applications, it is important to use a strong, reliable anti-malware application to scan the affected computer in search for any possible threat or unwanted files that may have entered the affected computer as a consequence of a PUP.IBryte infection.

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 |
