image Threats that you should be aware of (Beta) image
CastleCops
Some of our wiki members put together this article on "Threats that you should be aware of". Excerpts:

""Malware" is the generic name software for malevolent software that can damage, disrupt or otherwise carry out other malicious activity if run on a computer. Though most people use "virus" as a catch-all to describe malicious software, this is not correct. Experts classify such malicious software along two dimensions - how they spread and their function (payload). "

The article also discusses distribution methods, payloads, and prevention. Help us grow out the article.
