NTRODUCTIONThis article aims to educate on the issue of malicious software (malware). According to a study by the AV-Test Institute, more than 220,000 malicious programs are recorded daily due to malware. According to the Bull Guard Security Center, malware or malicious software refers to computer programs created to interfere or destroy the operation of computers, without users' consent. Malware can take the form of worms, viruses, Trojan horses and spyware threats that can disrupt the security of any data system and even lead to denial of access to information on that system. Since these malicious attacks are so vulnerable in the technology environment, this study is ongoing. company in order to gain more knowledge about its roots, current intrusion modes and threats for the future if protection methods are not strongly implemented. Malware first appeared in the 1970s, when it was created by BBN engineer Robert H. Thomas. . A brief explanation of this research will tell how these engineers' attempt to demonstrate a mobile application via the "Creeper Worm" failed because it launched a threat that destroyed the system. Plus, a look at how a 15-year-old, Rich Skrenta and his likeness in computers, turned a prank into a virus and the resulting consequences. Additionally, malware today is nothing compared to what it was in the 1990s. As technology has become more advanced, malware has also advanced. Cybercriminals launch attacks against various forms of personal data and information every day. As a result, protecting information has become a priority for many organizations. Details of how this process of widespread intrusion occurred... middle of paper ... to come, just as they have over the past two decades. They believe, however, that malware will operate in a much more populated "mobile device landscape," making information security initiatives and efforts even more difficult. (Roberts 2013) CSO Online, which is also a subsidiary of McAfee, in a 2013 report titled "Future Malware Could Damage Bytes, Bones, and Brains," highlighted cybersecurity companies' claims that future malware Malware would distort the distinction between the digital and the brain. analog damage as early as 2020. This concern was presented in a report by the International Cybersecurity Protection Alliance and the European Cybercrime Center. According to the report, “Evolving threats to critical infrastructure and human implants will increasingly blur the distinction between cyberattack and physical attack, leading to offline destruction and physical damage. »
