Clampi is a man-in-the-browser trojan that can transmit financial and personal information from a compromised computer to a third party. Clampi was first observed in 2007 and only affects computers running Microsoft Windows.[1] It is primarily targeted at utilities, market research firms, online casinos, and career sites.[2] Joe Stewart of SecureWorks said that it is one of the largest and most professional thieving operations on the Internet.[3]
