  2. On all system and removable drives steal documents of various formats (including doc, docx, ppt, pptx, xls, xlsx), herewith doing encrypted copies.
  3. Tracks the operating system functions such as create/delete/copy/move files or directories, copy to clipboard, encrypt and decrypt data, and others.
