\nInfostealer malware is typically installed through phishing links, fake software installs, malicious attachments or infections from cracked apps and websites.

These records accumulate in logs that threat actors share, sell or mishandle \u2014 in this case leaving them publicly available. (AppleInsider<\/a>)<\/p>\nGrowing over time:<\/strong>
