>It isn't illegal to create premium software that could in theory be use for crime if you don't market it that way.

Who is making money off of selling premium software, that's not marketed as for cybercrime, to non-governmental attackers? Wouldn't the attackers just pirate it?

Feel like IDA Pro counts.

This type of software is being sold on many forums, both on the clearnet and darknet.

Sometimes the software is SaaS (yes, even crimeware is SaaS now). In other cases, it has heavy DRM. Besides that, attackers often want regular updates to avoid things like antivirus detections.

>>Thorre+(OP)
Tons of companies like Portswigger (Burp Suite) or Cobalt Strike (their c2)

I assume the forums you're talking about are cybercrime forums. So I think that counts as "marketed for cybercrime". I'm asking if there's anything not marketed for cybercrime.

Wouldn't those get pirated by malicious attackers? I though only legit companies paid for the license.

I'm pretty sure nearly 100% of IDA Pro usage by underground hackers is pirated.

>>Thorre+qC5
The threat actors just make fake businesses and buy legit licenses as well
