My little brother downloaded a trojan I don’t know how long ago, I found out when I realized my malware bytes was gone for some reason, and when I got it back, I had 36 files sent to quarantine after the first scan! He tried downloading a mod for something, he is still afraid to tell me the truth. The hackers have been sending messages on steam and instagram, but I have 2FA on all of those and I get login alerts, what’s the point if they got through all of these?? What can I do besides changing my passwords?

    Hackers used to do so with a Reverse Proxy (with their RAT) and stealing the cookie session makes It possible. Doing so, they have your IP and your cookie session so for example Instagram Will think its the same session.

    Some recent RATs/Trojans have something called HVNC which creates a hidden desktop and they can open almost any app on your Computer silently like being at your phisical PC. This makes It way easier for hackers to do that.
