A sophisticated new phishing framework dubbed “Spiderman” has emerged in the cybercrime underground, dramatically lowering the barrier to entry for financial fraud.
This toolkit, observed by Varonis, allows threat actors, even those with minimal technical skill, to spin up pixel-perfect replicas of legitimate banking portals in just a few clicks.
The kit targets customers of dozens of European financial institutions and cryptocurrency platforms explicitly, signaling a dangerous evolution in automated cybercrime tools.
What sets Spiderman apart from standard, single-target phishing scripts is its professional-grade architecture and extensive automation. It functions as a full-stack framework where attackers no longer need web development expertise or coding knowledge to launch campaigns.
The kit consolidates targeting for dozens of major brands, including Deutsche Bank, Commerzbank, ING (Germany & Belgium), and CaixaBank, into a single, cohesive interface.
This level of polish follows a concerning trend of feature-packed tools like SpamGPT and MatrixPDF that are making widespread attacks increasingly accessible. In practice, Spiderman reduces the complex process of bank phishing to a simple selection menu.
