Therefore, cyber criminals can use PyXie to install ransomware, other Trojans, cryptocurrency miners, and other malicious, unwanted programs, steal sensitive information such as login credentials (usernames, email addresses, passwords) for various accounts (banking, email, social media and other accounts), use the webcam to record videos and then use that material to blackmail victims, and for other malicious purposes. Research shows that PyXie can be used to log keystrokes, steal credentials, cookies, clear logs, record video using the victim's webcam, download and run executable files, collect the list of installed software, restart the infected computer, retrieve and clear LogMeIn credentials, download and execute Mimikatz (a tool that copies passwords from memory), and to perform other actions. In any case, if there is any reason to suspect that this RAT is already installed on the operating system, remove it immediately.
