What is Trojan: Win32 / Occamy?

Trojan: Win32 / Occamy is a versatile malware, as it performs various functions according to the choices of the developers. For example, it can abuse system resources to mine cryptocurrency. The whole process of crypto-mining based mainly on solving various "mathematical equations". Mining tools use system resources to perform calculations. Each time an "equation" is solved, only one currency unit (eg, 1 Bitcoin) is mined. Since an identical "equation" is solved by multiple computers simultaneously, the reward is split between each device based on the power of the device and the amount of work done. All income is collected by cybercriminals (crypto wallet), while users receive nothing in return. In fact, all of this is done without their consent, and as mining takes up 100% of computer resources, systems often become unstable and virtually unusable. Additionally, under certain circumstances (high ambient temperatures, poor cooling systems, etc.), hardware may be damaged (components may overheat).
