A new Android malware posing as an antivirus tool software created by Russia’s Federal Security Services agency (FSB) is being used to target executives of Russian businesses.

In a new report from Russian mobile security firm Dr. Web, researchers track the new spyware as ‘Android.Backdoor.916.origin,’ finding no links to known malware families.

Among its various capabilities, the malware can snoop on conversations, stream from the phone’s camera, log user input with a keylogger, or exfiltrate communication data from messenger apps.
