DelphiniumElatum is untrustworthy application identified during the analysis of a malicious installer obtained from an unreliable website.

Enabling this feature without proper authorization or from unreliable sources can result in a loss of control, privacy issues, security risks, interference with the user experience, and difficulties in reverting the changes. The DelphiniumElatum malicious extension is known to affect Chrome and Edge browsers. It can manipulate browser settings, manage themes, and control extensions. Its potential for unauthorized alterations, installation of unwanted extensions, performance degradation, and heightened security and privacy risks make it a concerning application.
