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:
Ranking: 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.

Snake rootkit is a malware infection that is categorized as a rootkit. Snake's operation is based on kernel mode drivers, making it a rootkit. Snake rootkit is generated to stealthily install a backdoor on a compromised PC, disguise the occurrence of its components, give a communication mechanism with its C&C servers, and permit an effective data exfiltration mechanism. At the same time, Snake rootkit exposes a flexibility to carry out its operations by engaging these noticeably different architectures. Snake rootkit is sophisticated and uses different techniques to avoid host defences and give the cybercrooks stealthy communication channels. Snake rootkit exhibits two very different approaches to the task of building a cyber-espionage toolkit. One approach is to delegate the network communication engine to usermode code, backed up by a usermode rootkit. Another approach is to execute all of the communications from the kernel-mode driver, which is a very challenging task by itself.
