Mr. Le Manh Tung, Research Director of CyRadar said, this type of malicious code is used in conjunction with the system intervention files (rootkit) to conceal, and continuously connect to the control server to update the executable file, and always maintain a process of digging virtual money on the machine. Therefore, regular review tools are difficult to detect.
However, users can easily recognize the problem because the virus constantly checks to turn off the process and delete the file of Vietnamese keyboards (Unikey, Vietkey).
