Question

write the short note on worms and spyware​

Answer 1

All three of these terms are used to describe malicious software that has infiltrated your computer through the Internet. Let’s take a look at how this happens

Your computer becomes infected with one of these parasites through a « door » into your computer; this « door » is opened when you download a piece of software, open an email or visit a website with an untrusted source. Once the malware enters your computer, it sleeps in your computer until its functions are triggered; the functions may vary depending on the type of malware.

A virus infects « host » files on your computer, and then it is transmitted to other users when you send out those files. This is how computer viruses spread. The virus’ effects may vary from decreased computer performance to a complete loss of the computer’s functionality.

A Trojan horse or « Trojan », infiltrates your computer through a file that you download and open. Unlike viruses, most Trojans stay on your computer only. They cause damage, but they do not spread to other computers. A Trojan is a piece of malware that stays in one place rather than spreading.

A computer worm infiltrates your computer when you download a file or an email. The worm then clones itself and attacks other devices on your network. The worm will infect your files, and will spread to the computers of people who you communicate with, in the same way that it infiltrated your computer

Spyware
In most cases, « Spyware » installs itself on your computer in the same way as a Trojan horse does. Spyware spies on everything you do: paying your bills online, watching online videos, using Facebook, etc. It compiles this information and sends it to a database that then affects your web browsing. Depending on your preferences and your browsing history, the database will suggest « promotional offers » or other scams. Spyware can also download and install viruses on your computer or open « pop-up » when you are surfing the web.
