A dangerous programme called a mobile Trojan virus is made specifically to infiltrate mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. Once installed on the smartphone, it can steal important data such as passwords, banking information, or access to other apps on the device. It is meant to pass as a legitimate programme and is frequently downloaded via third-party app stores or through phishing emails.

Consider the "BankBot" mobile Trojan as an example. A fake banking app is created by the attacker, who then uploads it to a third-party app store or distributes it via phishing emails. The customer downloads the app under the impression that it is a reliable financial app. Once loaded, the software asks for rights that are necessary for it to function, but in reality, it utilises those permissions to steal sensitive data from the user's banking app and the device. In order to steal the user's login information, the programme may also present false login screens. The information can subsequently be used for fraudulent purposes by the assailant.

When downloading applications, it's crucial to exercise caution and only does so from reliable sources, such as Apple (App Store) and Google Play legitimate app stores (Google Play Store). The prevention of a mobile Trojan virus infection can also be aided by routinely updating your mobile device and its apps.

1. Backdoor Trojan: A backdoor Trojan allows the attacker to gain access to the infected device and steal sensitive data or use it for harmful purposes by opening a hidden communication channel.

   
   

2. Downloader Trojan: the downloader On the compromised device, Trojan is utilised to obtain and execute other harmful applications.

4. Rootkit Trojan: A rootkit Trojan is made to conceal itself and additional harmful software on the infected system, making it challenging to find and get rid of.

   
   

5. Remote Access Trojan (RAT): With the aid of a RAT, an attacker can seize control of an infected device and utilise it for nefarious activities like sending spam emails or conducting denial-of-service cyberattacks.

   
   

6. Info-stealing Trojan: A data-thieving Trojan is made to steal personal data including credit card numbers, passwords, and login information.
