Proton RAT

Proton RAT is a Remote Access Trojan (RAT) specifically designed for macOS systems. It is known for providing attackers with complete remote control over the infected system, allowing the execution of commands, keystroke capturing, access to the camera and microphone, and the ability to steal credentials stored in browsers and other password managers. This malware typically spreads through malicious or modified applications, which, when downloaded and installed by unsuspecting users, trigger its payload. Proton RAT is notorious for its sophistication and evasion capabilities, including techniques to bypass detection by installed security solutions.
