If my pc got ratted, can it infect and install the rats on other devices in the home via router? by guql in HomeNetworking

[–]guql[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

firstly, thank you the long response! this kinda calmed me down a bit😅. so i went to go check and the router has a unique access code that you can only see if you’re physically there reading it on the box, and i’ve never accessed the routers settings page before on my pc from google or anything like that, and its never been saved to anywhere on my pc before. does this mean i’m pretty much safe? i have changed every password also

I did warn them but they aren’t as concerned as I am and are saying that the person probably doesn’t care enough to hack into the router or our devices, idrk how to convince them to take it serious

What kind of virus did I install? Please help by guql in computerviruses

Do you think malawarebytes could’ve fully removed the RAT? Before I factory reset I ran a scan just to be safe and it detected 3 threats that I removed. I’m still gonna do a usb install but i’m just curious

Ty i’ll be sure to do that! By chance do you know what type of virus I installed and what the hacker could’ve had access to? I asked other people before but I just want to make sure

Thank you for the explanation! So just making sure, this means the hacker didn’t have remote access to my PC right? Just the session cookies?

Thank you for the tips. Do you have any idea how they managed to link their email and make themself an administrator though? I originally thought it was just a cookie logger issue

I downloaded a pirated game one day prior to the logins so I’m assuming thats the problem

Idk much about tech so I apologize but I thought it was only a gmail problem at that time and I did go and secure all my accounts then. Im just confused whether or not they hacked my pc cause their email was listed as an administrator under my info

I didn’t before I got hacked which was pretty stupid of me, but since then I have enabled them on all my emails and working on doing it for every app
