The name of the new virus is Big Brother. When the victim’s computer is hit, it runs in the background and is activated when the user wears a VR headset and works in a sandbox. During the surveillance process, the virus records the user’s screen and transmits all confidential data to the operator using an unblocked TCP port. Also, the user is unlikely to discover that they are being followed.
The danger of a new type of attack is that VR is now commonplace among gamers, but is also becoming popular with engineers and analysts. In this case, the hackers behind such attacks will reach a new level and be able to engage in industrial espionage.
