| Message | BACKDOOR trinity connection attempt |
| Summary | This event is generated when an attacker attempts to connect to a Trinity DDoS Trojan server. |
| Impact | Possible Distributed Denial of Service and control of the victim host. |
| Detailed Information | This Trojan affects UNIX operating systems: Trinity is used as a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) agent and can launch DDoS attacks from a large number of hosts against a target. Due to the nature of this Trojan it is unlikely that the attacker's client IP address has been spoofed. |
| Affected Systems | |
| Attack Scenarios | This Trojan may be delivered to the target in a number of ways. This event is indicative of an existing infection being activated. Initial compromise may be due to the exploitation of another vulnerability. |
| Ease of Attack | This is Trojan activity, the target machine may already be compromised. |
| Corrective Action | Delete the Trojan and kill any associated processes. Restore the system from known good backups. |
