{tableName=glossary, name=Malware Vs. Viruses Vs. Worm, description=s Malware: Malware is a type of software designed to harm or exploit computer systems without the user’s knowledge or consent. It can be used to gain access to sensitive information, steal data, or cause damage to a computer system or network.

Viruses: A virus is a type of malware that infects computer systems or networks by replicating itself without the user’s knowledge or consent. It can spread from one computer to another, often via email or malicious websites. Once a virus is installed on a computer, it can cause damage by deleting files, corrupting data, or stealing information. Worms: A worm is a type of malware that replicates itself across computer networks without the user’s knowledge or consent. Unlike a virus, a worm does not require a host program to spread. It can spread from one computer to another, often via email or malicious websites. Worms can be used to steal data, spread malicious code, or cause damage to a computer system or network., topic=null, hs_path=malware-vs.-viruses-vs.-worm}--
