Understanding Banking Trojan

A banking trojan is a type of malware designed to steal financial credentials and intercept online banking transactions, typically by capturing keystrokes, injecting fraudulent web content, or hijacking browser sessions. Notable families such as Zeus, Emotet, TrickBot, and Dridex have used techniques like form grabbing and web injects to harvest account numbers, passwords, and one-time codes. Many banking trojans have evolved into modular loaders that also deliver ransomware and other payloads.
