Financial damages caused by remittance fraud in Japan has been increasing since year 2013, and this has become a critical problem in our society.
In April 2015, Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department conducted its very first unique takedown operation called "Operation Banking Malware Takedown”.
Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department had asked us to cooporate with this operation, so we developed a technology that would takedown the banking malware called "VAWTRAK".
In this presentation, I will give an overview of the operation and a background of our involvement.
Then, I will introduce and demonstrate the technology that we developed to takedown “VAWTRAK”.
I will also provide a description of ongoing banking malware attacks this year based on our investigation.
