Falcon Platform Prevents COOKIE SPIDER's SHAMOS Delivery on macOS
Between June and August 2025, the CrowdStrike Falcon platform successfully blocked a sophisticated malware campaign that attempted to compromise over 300 customer environments. The campaign deployed SHAMOS, a variant of Atomic macOS Stealer (AMOS) developed by the cybercriminal group COOKIE SPIDER. Operating as malware-as-a-service, COOKIE SPIDER rents this information stealer to cybercriminals who deploy it to harvest sensitive information and cryptocurrency assets from victims.
