"New Atomic macOS Malware Targets Keychain Passwords, Crypto Wallets, and Credit Card Info"

A new information stealer for macOS called Atomic macOS Stealer (AMOS) is being advertised on Telegram for $1,000 per month. The malware can steal Keychain passwords, system information, files, and even the macOS password. It can also extract data from web browsers and cryptocurrency wallets like Atomic, Binance, Coinomi, Electrum, and Exodus. The malware is distributed under the guise of legitimate software and is delivered through phishing websites or by exploiting vulnerabilities. Users are advised to only download and install software from trusted sources, enable two-factor authentication, review app permissions, and refrain from opening suspicious links received via emails or SMS messages.
