Produktbeschreibung

Malware involves the worms, Trojan horses and viruses that do malicious activities on mobile and computers by controlling and destroying software processes. Data from Tencent Mobile Security Laboratory reveal that malware consists of various threats and will continue to pop up. Many methods and techniques are necessary for protection against malware. When web users download free software and games from the malicious and unsafe websites, then malicious programs enter into computers and mobile phones. Users are unaware of such possible threats. Only when a pornographic websites and malicious advertisements pop up automatically can users tell that their computer is "infected." When malware remains undiscovered, all confidential information available on the network of user, such as account information of the bank and credit/debit card passwords, can be stolen. Malware or rogue software also pertains to programs that prompt the constant popping up of malicious advertisements and pornographic websites. Malware possesses the several hazards. (a) Mandatory installation: installing software on a user's computer or other terminals without explicitly prompting or getting permission from the user. (b) Difficult to uninstall: uninstalling a common unload or having an active program after unload without the influence of another software or human destruction. (c) Hijacking of browsers: modifying a user's browser or other related settings without permission to force the user to access specific sites or be unable to access the Internet. (d) Advertisement pop-up: the behavior that does not explicitly prompt the user or that uses the software installed on the computer or other terminals to pop up advertisements without permission. (e) Malicious collection of user information: the behavior that does not explicitly prompt the user or maliciously collects user information without permission. The threats of malware have become powerful after several years of development. Specifically, malware has become a commercial activity that is driven by economic benefits, and anti-malware manufacturers are relatively passive due to various factors.
