Malware Response and Analysis

Tags: spyware, malware, antivirus, email, software, website

Overview With the ever expanding use of the internet, and the availability of always on, high speed internet at the home, the threat of malware has never been greater. In the past viruses were passed from user to user through storage media, or as attachments to email. But today malicious software, or malware, is potentially on any website, or embedded in many files that appear harmless. In most instances, antivirus software or spyware removal software will detect the malware and protect the computer from infection, but not always. This paper examines the response needed when the computer is infected with malware, the effect of malware programs and how to determine the changes to an operating system.
