GigaWiper Combines Multiple Malware for System-Level Sabotage

2026-07-13

GigaWiper is a Go-based backdoor used since October 2025 that combines older wiper and ransomware components into a modular tool with robust command-and-control. It can wipe disks at the physical level, trigger a BSOD, encrypt files with both recoverable and unrecoverable keys, capture screenshots, execute PowerShell commands, and clear logs while maintaining remote control via RabbitMQ and Redis.
