WindDrop

WindDrop is one of the tools that the WindShift APT hackers have used against their targets in the past. While other tools that are part of the WindShift arsenal are focused on Apple devices, WindDrop is a backdoor Trojan that targets devices running variations of the Windows operating system. This backdoor is able to provide its operator with the ability to execute commands on the infected host, as well as to manipulate the system's configuration and behavior. It is also possible that WindDrop may provide attackers with the ability to deploy additional malware to the compromised computer.

There is very little information about WindDrop due to the relatively low activity of its creators. However, if the hackers are using the same propagation techniques as they do with their Mac-compatible malware, then it is likely that WindDrop is being spread via elaborate social engineering tricks and tactics that take months to accomplish. The WindShift hackers are known for setting up fake profiles and online personas that are used in social engineering campaigns that often last for months.

While WindDrop is an advanced piece of Windows malware, certainly, you should be able to protect yourself with the help of a suitable anti-malware application and correct security policies.
