Brain Test (original) (raw)

Brain Test was a piece of malware masquerading as an Android app that tested the users IQ. Brain Test was discovered by security firm Check Point and was available in the Google Play app store until 15 September 2015. Check Point described Brain Test as "A new level of sophistication in malware". The malware turned out to include a rootkit, the revelation being described as "more cunning than first thought". According to Check Point, it may be necessary to re-flash the ROM on a device if Brain Test has successfully installed a reinstaller in the system directory.
