The bad news is that TriangleDB implant loves Apple too much, it even dreams in iOS. Unfortunately, its love is quite destructive. It is intentionally designed to target Apple iOS devices. Instead of bringing roses and chocolates, it comes with four different types of malicious modules. It’s as if it’s saying “If hacking was an Apple store, I’d be a four-for-one deal.”
The TriangleDB has four different modules but doesn’t perform any harmonies or quartets though. Instead, it can record microphone audio (for those of you who wanted your voice to be heard, that’s probably not what you had in mind). It can extract iCloud Keychain, making it the guest that snoops around your private stuff. It can also extract data from SQLite databases, turning your beloved apps into traitors. Lastly, it estimates the user’s location pretty accurately. Quite a stalker-type I would say! Who knew all this correspondence with your favorite pizza place would end up like this?
Kaspersky, the cyber guardian angel, throws light on this sneaky operation, stealthily named as ‘Operation Triangulation.’ It’s a criminal operation with a geometric flair, if you ask me. The culprits behind this operation have shown an uncanny knack to cover up their trails. In hacker terms, this enemy combatant is a “do not despair, he’s got a lair.”
To sum it up, TriangleDB implant is a sour addition to the Apple iOS party. With not one, but four malicious modules, it extracts key information and is as clingy as a Facebook quiz app, monitoring your location and recording your conversations. Thanks to Kaspersky, we’re aware of this nefarious operation, but the adversary behind it remains as hidden as the last slice of pizza. But remember folks, when life gives you lemons (or in this case, the TriangleDB), you make apple juice and leave the world wondering how.
