Malware
Malware is such a malicious software or program that cause irreparable harm to the system. In its essence, it is basically a program or a code that is embedded into a replicated link. It is usually sent over e-mails or websites attracting users with the dubious message. Those who lack information click this link and thus become prey to these cyber-attackers. From there, cyber-attackers gain unauthorized access to the user’s system and then use it for their gain. The impact of malware depends on the purpose for which it was created. The popular ones include spying, hijacking core functions, deleting data, stealing, or encrypting data to demand money for decryption.
Now the question arises that how to gauge if someone has become an attack of malware. There are few signs which tell about the existence of malware such as slow down of computer operations, unexpected pop-up ads, repeated crashing or freezing of the system, and mysterious loss of disk space. The other prominent signs include change of browser’s homepage, whirling away of computer’s fan at full speed, and inactivity of the computer’s antivirus program.
