Welcome to another exciting episode from Cyberwings Security!
In this video, we will discuss what viruses, worms, and advanced persistent threats (APTs) are, and how they can be detected and prevented.
Viruses are self-replicating programs that can damage or disable computer systems. They can spread to other computers through email attachments, infected websites, or removable media.
Worms are similar to viruses, but they can spread without human intervention. They exploit vulnerabilities in computer networks to replicate themselves and spread to other computers.
Advanced persistent threats (APTs) are sophisticated cyberattacks that are designed to gain unauthorized access to a computer network and remain undetected for an extended period of time. APTs are typically carried out by state-sponsored actors or organized crime groups, and they can be very difficult to detect and prevent.

How to protect yourself from viruses, worms, and APTs
Install and maintain antivirus software on all of your devices.
Keep your software up to date.
Be careful about what attachments you open and what websites you visit.
Use strong passwords and enable two-factor authentication whenever possible.
