IMPORTANT 

MobaXterm for Windows is a toolbox for remote computing. It provides remote network tools like SSH, RDP, VNC etc.. MobaXterm is portable remote access/Admin package. Sophos already has AppC detections for many of similar components by other vendors like VNC, PUTTY etc..

 

We are increasingly seeing threat actors using remote access tools as part of the attack chain, to connect back out of a compromised machine. Sophos is planning to add AppC detection for MobaXterm application. MobaXterm will be categorized as Remote management tool and will be published in the July release. Customers who want to continue to use this application in their environment, please modify your application control policy to allow MobaXterm.
