Varonis says Dolphin X is a Windows RAT/stealer sold with 329 features and targeting 300+ applications.
- It can harvest browsers, crypto wallets, SSH keys, cloud tokens, password managers, and .env files.
- The unusual part is an AI Profiler that scores infected victims so attackers can prioritize the most valuable machines first.
- The operator can use the score to filter out low-value infections and focus on higher-yield targets across large enterprise attack surfaces.
