Threat Chrome

We formulated this web page in reaction to Iseek – a rogue plugin for the Google Chrome browser that chain–redirects to findflarex.com then to boyu.com.tr and lock setting behind a ‘managed by organization’ say reserved for enterprises and operate environments. For reference, Boyu is he initial deceitful search engine that browser invaders use in the previous 3 months.

We’ve noted certain ‘new’ add-ons by Findflarex exploit the Chrome web store’s lax policies. All of those plug-ins to date are a replicate-paste of the same thing like Iseek. To title quite a few, these kinds of consist of Searchisty, Ksearchy and Surfsee. There are no differences in packages with Iseek, and in fact in most situations, the criminals ignore to replace the title in the EULA and use an earlier extension’s name.

As of writing, you can locate the Iseek add-on in Chrome’s Web Store, but those things get removed and a new one pops up each week. We think thee criminals on their own uninstall the add-on to dodge admin analysis, then begin over.
