The Top 10 Malware variants composed 78% of Total Malware activity in August 2020, up from 60% in July.
The significant jump from the previous month is due to the rapid increase in Shlayer activity, which has not entered the Top 10 Malware since February 2019.

This is likely due to recent structural upgrades to Shlayer, giving it dropper and downloader capabilities in conjunction with its existent adware functionality. Additionally, due to the start of a new school year, Shlayer activity has drastically increased from the previous month. Shlayer is highly likely to continue to be at the top of the Top Ten Malware as their campaign pans out.

Activity levels for all vectors, except multiple and network, increased. MS-ISAC observed two new malware variants, Agent Tesla and Blaknight.
