According to information received by the Kaspersky Virus Lab, Brador was probably written by a Russian virus coder. The Trojan was attached to an email with a Russian sender and Russian text inside. The author was offering to sell the client part for the Trojan to all interested parties, which means that there is a real chance that the backdoor may be bought by somebody who will use it commercially (bot network creation, for instance).

"PDA users face a real danger and we can be sure that the computer underground will snatch at the chance to attack PDAs and mobile phones in the nearest future," added Eugene Kaspersky, "malware development for mobiles is passing through the same stages as malware for desktops: we will probably see a serious outbreak of viruses for handhelds sometime soon."

Kaspersky Labs has already updated the antivirus databases with protection against Brador. A detailed description of Brador is available in the Kaspersky Virus Encyclopedia.
