A new keylogger called “Mass Logger” is currently being tracked by Cofense Intelligence and security researchers believe that it could significantly impact the larger keylogger market as well as the phishing threat landscape.

Keloggers make up the largest volume of unique phishing campaigns by malware type today and they continue to grow in both popularity and sophistication.

The reason that Cofense is so concerned about Mass Logger is due to how quickly the malware is updated. Its author consistently updates and improves Mass Logger and this allows cybercriminals deploying the malware to overcome security measures taken to detect and defend against it. This rapid development also allows the malware's creator to quickly add features in response to customer feedback.
