Fraudulent support apps request accessibility services under false pretenses like screen reader and then overlay phishing screens
Command-and-Control Channels
RATs use encrypted messaging platforms (Telegram bots) or compromised legitimate apps to receive instructions and exfiltrate data stealthily
Screen Overlays & UI Manipulation
Sophisticated trojans inject transparent overlays that mislead users into approving transactions or divulging credentials without detection
Silent Functions
RATs hide their components in system directories, evade static analysis with dynamic code loading, and maintain persistence across reboots to facilitate prolonged attacks.
Here's how Sense prevents RAT scams ...
Detect Permission Abuse
Suspicious combinations—such as screen-capture with input control— are automatically revoked and logged
Interception of Endpoints
Any attempt to connect to known or anomalous endpoints triggers immediate blocking and session isolation
UI Integrity Validation
Unauthorized overlays or injected elements are detected in real time, and the session is locked down
Behavioral Anomaly Blocking
Detect non-human or remote-driven input. Upon anomaly detection, Sense terminates the session and alerts security teams
