WHAT IS MALWARE?
Types of Malware
 Adware
 Spyware
 Ransomware
 Bots
 Bugs
 Viruses
Adware and Spyware
 Adware
Adware is a type of
Malware that continues to
deliver advertisements to
your computer. It is a
revenue generating tool
for some malicious
companies.
 Spyware
Spyware is a type of
Malware that observes
your behavior without
your knowledge. It can
even track your
keystrokes to steal your
passwords.
Ransomeware and Bots
 Ransomware
Ransomware is a type of
Malware that can hold
you ransom. For
example, if you were
browsing pornography, it
can demand money from
you or threaten to ruin
your reputation.
 Bots
Bots can be harmless in
video games, but can be
harmful in a Malware
application. They
automate various tasks
such as using your
computer to attack others,
thereby making you an
accessory to an attack.
Bugs and Viruses
 Bugs
Comparatively, bugs
can be less malicious
and be more of a
nuisance. They can
cause your programs to
freeze, crash or cause
your computer to slow
down.
 Viruses
Viruses are very general, and
can be a combination of any
form of Malware. They can
spy, act as a Bot, annoy like
a Bug or launch
advertisements. However,
Viruses are inherently more
dangerous as they spread in
sneaky ways to other
computers through the
internet or through your
network.
Viruses (continued)
How To Protect Yourself
 When you receive a strange
file in your email, question it!
Did you request it or did it
come out of nowhere?
 Only download from a reliable
source.
 If you receive a strange email
or message from a friend,
make sure it’s actually them
sending it! Maybe they have
a virus.
How to Protect Yourself
(continued)
 Note that sometimes you
may get pop-ups that ask
you to fix your computer.
This is a common trick! Do
not fall for random online
pop-ups unless it’s offered
by a company that you
trust.
How to Protect Yourself
(continued)
 The most popular and
powerful program for
protecting yourself is called
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
