    Research and analyze malware.

    • Background / Scenario
    Malware, or malicious software, refers to a variety of malicious software programs that can be used to
    cause harm to computer systems, steal data, and bypass security measures. Malware can also attack
    critical infrastructure, disable emergency services, cause assembly lines to make defective products,
    disable electric generators, and disrupt transportation services. Security experts estimate that more
    than one million new malware threats are released each day. McAfee Labs Threats Report 2019
    indicates the discovery of new ransomware techniques, the exposing of billions of accounts through
    high profile data dumps, significant HTTP web exploitation, defects in Windows, Microsoft Office, and
    Apple iOS, and continued attacks on IoT personal devices. Find the most current version of the report
    by doing a web search for McAfee Labs Threats Report.

    Note: You can use the web browser in virtual machine installed in a previous lab to research security
    related issues. By using the virtual machine, you may prevent malware from being installed on your
    computer.
