6. MALWARE- Malware is a combination of 2 terms- Malicious and
Software. So Malware basically means malicious software that can
be an intrusive program code or anything that is designed to
perform malicious operations on system.
VIRUSES AND WORMS- A computer virus is a malicious code that replicates
by copying itself to another program, system or host file.
A computer worm is a self replicating program that does not have to copy itself to
a host program or require human interaction to spread.
Phishing- phishing typically involves sending emails that purport to be from a
recognized and trusted source, usually with a fake link that invites them to enter
personal details into an online form

7. Ransomware - In a ransomware attack, the victim's computer is
locked, typically by encryption, which keeps the victim from using the
device or data that's stored on it. To regain access to the device or
data, the victim has to pay the hacker a ransom, typically in a virtual
currency such as bitcon.

8. SECURITY MEASURES
Fire wall-A firewall stops information being changed or stolen It
limits entry into a network to a authorised users and content.
Encryption-Encryption process of transforming information using an
algorithm to make it unreadable to anyone except those possessing special
knowledge, usually referred to as a key.
Anti virus- Anti-virus is a software that scans files or your computer's
memory for certain patterns that may indicate an infection. The patterns it
looks for are based on the signatures, or fingerprints, of known viruses.

9. BACKUP-Producing back up of all the data in one of the
reliable cloud service options. This way, in case the data is
encrypted and stolen, one can restore it quickly from the
cloud backups and get the operations up and
running in no time.
