Short Note

Solution

Cyber Attack:

  1. Virus
  2. Worms

Function:

  1. A virus is a small piece of computer code that can repeat itself and spreads from one computer to another by attaching itself to another computer file. One of the most common viruses is Trojan. 
  2. Worms are self–repeating and do not require a computer program to attach themselves. Worms continually look for vulnerabilities and report back to the author of the worm when weaknesses are discovered.
