(RATS) - Remote Access Trojan?

Or Radio Access Technology?

Upon gaining access to Field Test Mode, I noticed in my “Dashboard” the codes:

-RAT RADIO ACCESS

-RAT BAND INFO

-RAT EARFCN

I tried typing them into Google out of curiosity and either can’t find anything whatsoever about them, or majority of the search results imply it’s a Remote Access Trojan (along with a lot of news reports about convictions for scammers using the malware).

So as well as intrigued about what they mean I’m also a bit worried now I’ve been under surveillance or my bank details etc have been stolen.

After clearing them from dashboard a few hours ago they haven’t returned (further reinforcing it was malware and not a service from phone carrier.

Please help me get to the bottom of this as I’ve had to just change my mobile carrier due to repeated spyware and malicious attacks where I was receiving no calls whatsoever (diverted) calls were being listened in on and tracking etc.

It had a detrimental effect to my business and mental health etc

If you don't know anything about radio frequencies, don't use field test. It only stresses you out.

For as far as I know RAT Is a normal frequency and has nothing to do with a trojan

Furthermore, a virus/trojan on an iPhone is very rare, if you haven't had jailbroken your phone you're completely fine

I mean, that’s a bit of an unhelpful and blunt answer and not answered any of my questions in OP.

I am genuinely interested either way.

Because of the issues faced with my previous phone and affect it had in my business I’d like to know more.

It may be rare but it’s not impossible for an iPhone to be hacked, hence the latest update to counteract this (IOS 15.6).

Ive now been told could possibly be, and very likely to be Police Surveillance 😂😂. What a boring time they’ll have if so and huge waste of money 😂
