Malware can spread in several ways, including through social networks, pirated software, removable media, emails, and websites. Once activated, malware can cause damages such as data loss by deleting files, account theft by stealing login credentials, and turning computers into bots that hackers can use for password cracking or spam. Common types of malware include viruses, Trojan horses, worms, and remote access Trojans. Symptoms of infection may include increased CPU usage, slow performance, and strange computer behaviors.
A zero-day vulnerability, also known as a computer zero day, is a flaw in software, hardware or firmware that is unknown to the party or parties responsible for patching or otherwise fixing the flaw.
Zero day may refer to the vulnerability itself, or it may refer to a zero-day exploit, an attack that uses the zero-day vulnerability to attack vulnerable systems

Ransomware cyber crime is there any solution or prevention is better than cure.
Cyber criminals have made lucrative business and even 100$ ransom gets collected via bitcoin.
Over the last few months, there has been tremendous growth in the number of ransomware attacks in the wild. What was once an attack technique aimed at susceptible individual users can now infiltrate advanced enterprise networks as well. In this presentation, you will learn how ransomware attacks propagate and what steps your organization can take to prevent them.

This chapter reviews how a number of input and output devices work. It also considers a variety of applications which make use of these devices.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.

2. MALWARE
How Malware Spreads?
• Malware is a program that must be triggered or
somehow executed before it can infect your computer
system and spread to others.
• Here are some examples on how malware is
distributed:
a) Social network
b) Pirated software
c) Removable media
d) Emails
e) Websites
3. Damages
1. Data Loss
• Many viruses and Trojans will
attempt to delete files or wipe
hard drives when activated
but even if you catch the
infection early, you may have to
delete infected files.
4. Damages
2. Account Theft
• Many types of malware include key logger functions,
designed to steal accounts and passwords from their
targets.
• This can give the malware author access to any of
the user's online accounts, including email servers
from which the hacker can launch new attacks
5. Damages
•
Botnets
• Many types of malware also subvert control over
the user's computer, turning it into a "bot" or
"zombie."
• Hackers build networks of these commandeered
computers, using their combined processing power
for tasks like cracking password files or sending out
bulkemails.
7. Trojan Horses
A Trojan Horse program has the appearance of
having a useful and desired function.
A Trojan Horse neither replicates nor copies itself,
but causes damage or compromises the security of
the computer.
A Trojan Horse must be sent by someone or carried
by another program and may arrive in the form of a
joke program or software of some sort.
These are often used to capture your logins and
passwords
Types of Malware
8. TYPES OF MALWARE
•
Example of Trojan Horse
• Remote access Trojans
• Backdoor Trojans (back
• IRC Trojans (IRC bots)
• Keylogging Trojans
9. Types of Malware
• Worms
• A computer worm is a self-replicating
computerprogram.
• It uses a network to send copies of itself to
other nodes (computers on the network) and
it may do so without any user intervention.
• It does not need to attach itself to an
existing
program.
10. • Damages
3. Botnets
• Many types of malware also subvert control over the
user's computer, turning it into a "bot" or "zombie."
• Hackers build networks of these commandeered
computers, using their combined processing power
for tasks like cracking password files or sending out
bulk emails.
11. 4. Financial Losses
• If a hacker gains access to a credit card or bank
account via a keylogger, he can then use that
information to run up charges or drain the account.
• Given the popularity of online banking and bill
payment services, a hacker who manages to secrete
a keylogger on a user's system for a full month may
gain access to the user's entire financial portfolio,
allowing him to do as much damage as possible in a
single attack.
12. • How Can You Protect Your Computer?
• Install protection software.
• Practice caution when working with files from
unknown or questionable sources.
• Do not open e-mail if you do not recognize the
sender.
• Download files only from reputable Internet
sites.
• Install firewall.
• Scan your hard drive for viruses monthly.
13. SYMPTOMS
• Increased CPU usage
• Slow computer or web browser speeds
• Problems connecting to networks
• Freezing or crashing
• Modified or deleted files
• Appearance of strange files, programs, or desktop
icons
• Programs running, turning off, or reconfiguring
themselves (malware will often reconfigure or turn
off antivirus and firewall programs)
14. SYMPTOMS
•Strange computer behavior
• Emails/messages being sent automatically and
without user’s knowledge (a friend receives a
strange email from you that you did not send)
• There seems to be a lot of network activity when
you are not using the network
• The available memory on your computer is lower
than it should be
• Programs or files appear or disappear without your
knowledge
• File names are changed .
