Finjan, a well known web security firm, has released data regarding rogueware from its Malicious Code Research Center. According to the report, the firm was able to gather data about a rogueware affiliate network, where members make an astounding $10,800 per day. In order to get traffic, the criminals use SEO techniques. The sites employ top keywords and misspelled searches in order to get visitors to compromised websites. Therefore, many of these sites appear as the top of a search engine’s results pages.
During the research, Finjan found that these methods have proven very effective and that almost half a million Google searches landed users on the pages of the rogueware server. Through these sites, 1.8 million users were redirected to download the rogue anti-virus program over a 16 day period. For each redirection, the members of the affiliate received 9.6 cents which equaled out to $10,800 per day.
