Hackers will use these classes in the future - The company has written in its official post that we have obtained information about the classes and content with the virus, which will be used against Jio users. But till now this content has not been sent to users' devices. The hackers are expected to use it soon.
This is how Exhelper works - this type of virus is installed in users' phones like an app. Consumers can find this app on third-party app stores and other sources. But Exhelper is not available on the Google Play Store. Along with this, the security company has advised the Jio consumer not to install the unknown app by mistake.

Even after uninstalling, the download happens automatically - if the consumer uninstalls the app with the Exhelper virus, it automatically gets downloaded again. Hackers have designed this app like non-visible apps. Also, the security company has announced that this virus app has infected more than 45 thousand Android phones in six months.
This is how hackers make the phone of users connect- Hackers decrypt the memory of the user's phone from this virus app. After embedding payloads, hackers connect devices to their command and control servers. This allows hackers to have complete control over the consumer's phone.
