2nd ans is above, they are some antivirus software with their logos

Ans 1.)

  • Worms
  • Worms are spread via software vulnerabilities or phishing attacks. Once a worm has installed itself into your computer’s memory, it starts to infect the whole machine and in some cases… your whole network.
  • Viruses
  • Unlike worms, viruses need an already-infected active operating system or program to work. Viruses are typically attached to an executable file or a word document.
  • Trojan Horses
  • Just as it sounds, a Trojan Horse is a malicious program that disguises itself as a legitimate file. Because it looks trustworthy, users download it and… hey presto, in which storms the enemy.
  • Adware and Scams
  • Adware is one of the better-known types of malware. It serves pop-ups and display ads that often have no relevance to you.
  • Spyware
  • Spyware secretly records your online activity, harvesting your data and collecting personal information such as usernames, passwords and surfing habits.
  • Phishing

Phishing is a type of social engineering attack, rather than a type of malware. But is a common method of cyber attack. Phishing is successful since the emails sent, text messages and web links created look like they’re from trusted sources. They’re sent by criminals to fraudulently acquire personal and financial information.

Done! Hope it helps you!
