PANews reported on March 20 that Yu Xian, the founder of SlowMist, released a response guide for computer virus infection and supplemented the Chinese version of the hacker manual. He pointed out that hacker groups often use social engineering to trick users into installing malware or running malicious code, such as pretending to be investors, journalists or HR to use conference software, or pretending to be Telegram and Cloudflare verification to require users to run malicious code.
Yu Xian suggested that infected users take the following measures in a timely manner: transfer wallet funds, modify important account passwords and check login status of unknown devices, use well-known antivirus software to detect and kill viruses, reset computers and perform antivirus on backup files if necessary. He emphasized that these attacks are not only aimed at Windows, but also at Mac and some Linux systems.
