Latrodectus is a Windows malware downloader that has been used since at least 2023 to download and execute additional payloads and modules. Latrodectus has most often been distributed through email campaigns, primarily by TA577 and TA578, and has infrastructure overlaps with historic IcedID operations.[1][2][3]
Enterprise ATT&CK only. Any Mobile or ICS rows on the same ATT&CK page are not carried.

Standing S1160
Reach is how much of ATT&CK this tool touches. Coverage is how well defended each thing it does is, as a median per technique rather than a total — a total would just restate the reach. Each figure is ranked against all 825 ATT&CK software entries only where that population actually spreads. Where most of the population shares one value, a percentile would rank the tie instead of the entity, so the raw value is shown and no rank is claimed.
Reach
98th percentile · 98% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have this many Enterprise techniques or fewer.
98th percentile · 98% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have this many tactics spanned or fewer.
61% of the population shares a single value across only 22 distinct values, so a percentile here would rank the tie, not the entity.
85% of the population shares a single value across only 8 distinct values, so a percentile here would rank the tie, not the entity.
Coverage
48th percentile · 52% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have more detection rules per technique.
Detection coverage S1160
1062 distinct rules cover the 43 techniques recorded for this tool. The 1218 technique-to-rule mappings resolve to 1062 distinct rules, because one rule can cover several techniques. 699 Sigma · 363 Splunk.
