LodaRAT

LodaRAT

LodaRAT is a Trojan horse virus that can infect computers without being detected. Once inside the system, LodaRAT can run malicious processes such as espionage, theft of data, and insertion of other viruses.

Various antivirus scanners detect the LodaRAT malware

What is typical for most Trojan threats is that after they have found their way inside a computer, they usually hide their traces so that they can stay concealed for as long as possible. That’s why the fact that there are no visible symptoms in your system doesn’t mean that you are not infected with LodaRAT. This new Trojan-based virus is a very stealthy tool that hackers can use for numerous malicious activities. Fortunately, on this page, you will find our specially created removal guide which explains how to detect and remove LodaRAT, as well as a professional removal program for automatic assistance and a full system check. If you have not dealt with Trojans before, we advise you to carefully follow the steps in the guide and use the professional program to effectively remove all the malicious files related to the infection. The reason is that Trojans can often camouflage as regular system files and if you don’t know how to correctly identify them, you may delete some vital OS files and end up corrupting your computer rather than deleting the malware.

The speed at which you eliminate the virus is also important because the longer it remains in the system, the greater the chance of it performing different malicious tasks in its background. Everything from theft of files and confidential information, system changes, exploitation of system resources and even spying on the victims can be expected from a threat like LodaRAT and Wup. Such an infection can be used to provide its criminal creators with remote access to the infected computer and allow them to manipulate the entire system any way they want. The crooks can watch you through your web camera, listen to your conversations and keep records of your online and offline activities. They can even record your keystrokes and this way reveal your passwords and login credentials, as well as other sensitive data such as your credit and debit card numbers, pin codes, and banking accounts. Such details, once in the hands of people with malicious intentions, can be misused in a number of ways.

For instance, you can become a victim of identity fraud, the crooks can empty your bank accounts, hijack your social network profiles, and even blackmail you with some sensitive images, videos or conversations they have gained access to thanks to the Trojan. Another possible usage of infections like LodaRAT is for the distribution of other threats. In many instances, the Trojan acts as a backdoor to ransomware and spyware and detects vulnerabilities that other viruses can exploit in order to sneak in the system without being detected.

That’s why it is very important to detect and remove LodaRAT as soon as possible so that you prevent it from inviting other malicious programs inside your system. The best and the quickest way to deal with the Trojan is to use a professional removal program, but the manual removal method is also an option if you know exactly what you have to remove. For instructions, please check the guide below or simply scan your device with the LodaRAT removal tool and eliminate the threat at once.
