Slow PC? Experts warn a sinister new malware could be behind it

Australians are being warned about a new type of ‘crypto malware’ that hijacks victims’ devices for cryptocurrency mining, causing them to run very slow. The malware does not steal funds from the victim’s cryptocurrency wallet but uses their device’s processing power for mining. Cybersecurity experts advise keeping all devices updated, using antivirus software, and practicing safe internet habits to protect against these attacks.
