1.Trojan is a type of malware that is often disguised as legitimate software. Trojans can be employed by cyber-thieves and hackers trying to gain access to users' systems. Users are typically tricked by some form of social engineering into loading and executing Trojans on their systems.

2.Software that is created specifically to help detect, prevent and remove malware (malicious software). Antivirus is a kind of software used to prevent, scan, detect and delete viruses from a computer.

3.Boot sector viruses infect the boot sector or the partition table of a disk. Computer systems are typically infected by these viruses when started with infected floppy disks - the boot attempt does not have to be successful for the virus to infect the computer hard drive.

Answer:

ANS 1. Trojan horse is a program that appears useful by pretending to do certain things in foreground, but in reality they are working silently in the background with the only objective of harming your computer and/or stealing valuable information.

ANS 2. An antivirus product is a program designed to detect and remove viruses and other kinds of malicious software from your computer or laptop.

ANS 3. Boot sector VIRUS infects the section of a disk that is first read by the computer. This type of VIRUS infects the boot or master section of any disks that it comes in contact with.
