Threats to Computer Security
What do we mean by a threat ?
A threat is something that may or may not happen, but has the potential to cause serious damage. Threats can lead to attacks on computer systems, networks and more.
A threat can be either “Intentional” or “Accidental”.
Virus – A virus is a small piece of software that piggybacks on real programs. For example, a virus might attach itself to a program such as a spreadsheet program. Each time the spreadsheet programs runs, the virus runs.
Email Virus – An email virus travels as an attachment to email messages, and usually replicates itself by automatically mailing itself to dozens of people in the victim’s email address book. Some email virus don’t even require a double click. They launch automatically via email software.
Trojan Horse – A Trojan Horse is simply a computer program. The program claims to do one thing but instead does damage when you run it. (It may erase your hard disk). Trojan Horses have no way to replicate automatically.
Worms – A worm is a small piece of software that uses computer networks and security holes to replicate itself. A copy of the worm scans the networks for another machine that has a specific security hole. It copies itself to the new machine using the security pole.
