Computer Protection or Security
- This unauthorized intrusion could be anything from the installation of malicious software on your
computer without your consent, to hackers taking over your computer’s control so that it can be
used as a botnet, including every other security threat which falls between them.
- Botnets are networks of hijacked computer devices used to carry out various scams and
cyberattacks. The term “botnet” is formed from the word’s “robot” and “network.” Assembly of a
botnet is usually the infiltration stage of a multi-layer scheme. The bots serve as a tool to automate
mass attacks, such as data theft, server crashing, and malware distribution.
- We therefore conclude that we should equipped our computer with the necessary security tools
like Antivirus and other Internet Security Tools to ensure its protection from various malware
attacks and other security threats.
