What is SAS – Saefko Attack Systems RAT?
Saefko Attack Systems (SAS) RAT is a
Remote Access Trojan designed to infiltrate Android devices, granting attackers full or partial control over the compromised system. Unlike legitimate remote administration tools, RATs operate stealthily, often remaining undetected while exfiltrating data or executing malicious commands.
