Analysis Summary

Trickbot is an information stealer/banking malware that uses modules to perform different functions.  With Windows 10, these modules are loaded into memory, and we only see initial Trickbot binary and a text-based configuration file stored on the infected Windows 10 host.Access to Trickbot-infected hosts is granted to other criminals groups to distribute other malware like Ryuk ransomware.  This sort of follow-up malware has previously been noted in conjunction with Powershell Empire traffic and/or Cobalt Strike activity on a Trickbot-infected host.
