PAC Files

Analysis and Takedown of Rogue PAC files

PAC Files are used as part of Malware and Pharming incidents to host fake DNS information for infected consumer PC’s to reference. Our expert Analysts are able to identify and analyze malicious PAC files to determine if they are targeting our client’s brand.

The take down process for PAC files is similar to any other take down, and FraudWatch International Security Analysts will actively pursue the take down response through to resolution.
