Perseus Android Malware Targets Mobile Banking Users via Fake IPTV Apps

Perseus is a stealthy Android malware campaign distributed via sideloaded IPTV apps that abuses Accessibility Services to perform persistence, scan note-taking apps for sensitive data (using a "scan_notes" command), perform keylogging and overlays, and enable near-real-time remote control; it employs anti-analysis checks to evade detection and primarily targets users in regions like Turkey and Italy, presenting significant privacy and financial risk.
