Notice! Your Navicat may have been poisoned...

Good morning everyone, I am programmer DD !

I just saw a threat intelligence report from Weibu Online, which mentioned that our widely used database management tool Navicat Premium was poisoned! If you have used the relevant version, you may be currently at risk of data leakage.

What's the matter?

According to Weibu's intelligence, this poisoned version of Navicat Premium originated from a domestic MacOS application download site: www.macwk.com .

Since Navicat Premium is a paid software, the attackers took advantage of the user's need to search for cracked versions to poison the Navicat Premium cracked version provided by the website.

Judging from the website data, the number of downloads of this software has reached 373128 times!

Navicat Premium still has a very large number of users in China. At the same time, due to the particularity of the tool (database connection tool), we must pay attention to the threat to data assets.

At present, the website should also receive relevant risk information, so this risk is reminded on the software page:

DD recommends that everyone quickly check whether the Navicat Premium cracked version distributed by www.macwk.com is used in the team today. If so, uninstall it quickly and modify the password of the logged in database account! It is also worth mentioning that the network security protection of important data can also be grasped, and it is better if the minimum range of access can be achieved! In this way, even if there is a problem with the tool, there is still a network policy that can be used to avoid the leakage of important data.

Finally, someone may want to ask, Navicat Premium cracked version is not safe, so what should I use? Then here are a few database tools that DD has used and found to be good:

The first one: Sequal Pro

It's a completely free tool that DD uses all the time. If you don't want to pay for commercial software and don't want to risk using cracked software, then this is suitable.

Official website: https://www.sequelpro.com/

The second one: IDEA's built-in tool

If you use IDEA to develop, the built-in database management tools can also be used directly, and the functions are quite powerful!

If you haven't used it, you can open it through the menu as shown below, and then you can see the relevant configuration interface in the right sidebar.

Finally, do a little research, which tool do you think is the best to use? Say it in the message area!
